Hijab Butch Blues

emotional

I absolutely loved this read! Lamya did an incredible job weaving their own stories to the ones in the Quran. It was so refreshing, informative and inviting. I genuinely appreciated the opportunity have witnessed the vulnerability of self. I enjoyed the authors flow and story telling abilities.
There were so many moments Lamya’s personality jumped out that I felt I was close to them. I would love to read more of their writing. Of course the Queer/Muslim identity discovery and the complex experiences that were shared with raw emotion relatability to their faith/religion was very enjoyable for me. I already miss Layma and am eager for more storytelling.
