Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H.
4.5
challenging emotional inspiring sad medium-paced

i listened to this and i really enjoyed it. this was a really great exploration of how religion and queerness can intersect. i thought that this was really beautifully written and i liked seeing how the author connected their own experiences to the prophets that were discussed. i was really interested in how the author talked about the "authentic queer experience" and how they don't necessarily fit that mold; i really connected with that. this is a book i could see myself rereading for sure!
