Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H

challenging emotional hopeful reflective fast-paced

5.0

Thanks to The Dial Press for the free copy of this book.

 - HIJAB BUTCH BLUES is a landmark work of queer memoir. Lamya H. weaves her own experiences as a queer person of color in with stories from the Quran, reframing the ancient stories into new contexts.
- It’s rare to see the story of a queer person who holds onto their faith after coming out, and it’s quite a breath of fresh air to follow Lamya as she builds her life and her faith into a shape that works for her.
- Honestly, nothing I say here can do this book justice. It’s a must read for anyone interested and invested in queer lives.
