Jasmine Zumideh Needs a Win by Susan Azim Boyer

4.0

Jasmine Zumideh Needs A Win is my new favorite YA book!

Susan Azim Boyer perfectly captures the painful struggle of growing up. While I cannot relate to being half Iranian during a time of turmoil between Iran and the United States, I felt transported back to my high school days. Navigating family/friend relationships, figuring out what you stand for, and deciding which path to pursue for the future are universal struggles for teenagers.

Jasmine Zumideh Needs A Win is refreshing, relatable and 80s reference filled book. If you are a fan of the 80s and YA, this book is a must!

Special thanks to NetGalley.com and St. Martin’s Press for allowing me to read this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
