These Invisible Things was our book club pick for February. It follows 3 young Muslim women who are navigating post grad life.
This book tackles interfaith relationships, family dynamics, & female friendship. I really enjoyed the conversations this book brought up in our book club & it was refreshing to learn about a new culture and religion.
Major trigger warnings for abuse. Each chapter is from the POV of a different friend & how they are navigating their situation. This felt like a poignant coming-of-age story.
