This book fell flat for me. I love reading books about Muslim experiences, but I didn’t really love this one. I don’t know if there were too many storylines, or that I didn’t love the characters (except Rashid!), or if the Muslim/immigrant/racist tropes were too much. It was a good read, but there were parts I didn’t care for at all.
