I think you don’t realize how much a book that you can relate to can have an affect on you until you read one. I’ve never read a book that the character where like me. 
Love story wise I wished they had more conversations to be honest, it felt rushed and a bit of insta love. What I do like though is that because it’s a Muslim love story; emotional is the only way they can build a relationship (no physical relationship) and so it’s build up is organic. I’m familiar with all the sayings and duas and the feeling of familiarity and warmth I got while reading this book was so unexpected. 
I loved the combatting islamophobia plot lines, especially the swimsuit plot line because I have seen it happen numerous times.
