This graphic novel was so good. I've read Fahmy's second comic collection, That Can Be Arranged and loved it so, naturally, I had to pick up her first foray into young adult graphic novels. I had the pleasure of reading this with a friend and it was a lot of fun. We literally read it together on the couch in my apartment. Fahmy has such a great voice and her comics are hilarious. I've followed her for a long time on social media (@yesimhotinthis on instagram, if you're curious) and this novel brought that same humor and voice while also tackling some tough subjects like Islamaphobia and microagressions. I think this is an excellent book to include in classrooms or to give to a young person in your life for it's great representation and it's age-appropriate approach to these topics. But I promise it's not all after-school special. I laughed out loud countless times and even teared up at one point. Please just check out this novel, it's fantastic.
