I Love I Hate I Miss My Sister by Amélie Sarn

5.0

This book was absolutely haunting and gorgeous, and at times incredibly painful and frustrating. I'm very glad that it was translated into English from the French, since it holds incredibly important ideas and problems that need to be addressed, even if we don't live in France. By exposing American young adult readers to issues such as France's laws forbidding wearing of head scarves in public, not only does it allow us to be more aware of foreign issues affecting other young people, but it gives a voice to those people as well, showing how they might feel.

I for one loved this book because it made me feel angry and frustrated by the unfairness of simply being able to practice your religion freely. It brought up incredibly important points, all of which need to be thought about, especially by younger generations, if we are to change society to be better and more accepting of others.
