A Girl Like That by Tanaz Bhathena

5.0

This was a painful but incredibly good read. The tension was so strong throughout, and the way that the personalities and motivations and histories of the characters were revealed little by little was so skillful. I’m also always glad to see a YA novel set outside of North America, and the story felt both completely specific to its Saudi Arabian setting and also universal to the teenage/coming-of-age experience.
