abookishaffair 's review for:
The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf
by Mohja Kahf
This book tells the story of a young Muslim girl in middle America dealing with being both an American (albeit grudgingly) and staying true to her faith. In the end, she realizes that she can have it both ways and feels a sense of freedom. It was interesting to see this sort of fish out of water story but it just wasn't my favorite. It sort of meandered a little without much of a goal or a conclusion.
The premise was good but it seemed like the author could have tried to make it a little more interesting with some sort of actual conflict (maybe more about the main character's friend's sister being murdered).
