Hana Khan Carries On by Uzma Jalaluddin
4.75
Almost perfect.
Wonderful You’ve Got Mail retelling. Ana and StanleyP become friends when Stanley comments on her podcast. Hana and Aydin meet when Aydin and his father storm into Hana’s mom’s restaurant to scope out, eat, and insult their future competition. The battle begins. Ana asks StanleyP for advice which she uses to thwart Aydin. This story is about a Muslim community in Toronto (including Islamophobia and intolerance), Hana’s and Aydin’s family, their jobs, and their growth.
Themes and tropes: Own voices (Canadian Muslim), enemies to lovers, crush, working women, crush, You've Got Mail retelling, fated mates
