It is a lovely story about love and marriage.
I don't like the style so much, and the story could have been... well... I liked it. It made me laugh. I recommend it :-)

Come for the funny stories, stay for the Jane Austen and Nora Ephron references. This was just so charming.

I received an ARC of this title from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman of 25 will probably never get married. Well... That was the truth in my community anyway..."
In her second book, Huda Fahmy--author of the hilarious "Yes, I'm Hot In This" webcomic--tells the story of how she met the love of her life, Gehad. She recounts the ups and downs, the feelings of longing and jealousy for a husband, how a bad suitor led to her reconnecting with God, how she relates to the struggles of Jane Austen's heroines, and ultimately how all of that led to meeting Gehad. With her quick wit, humor, and love for all things nerdy, Fahmy bares her soul and addresses a near universal concept: longing for someone to love, and struggling to find the right person--and, most importantly, get married for the right reasons.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that everyone will fall in love with "That Can Be Arranged"!

How cute and funny. Happy for her that her parents got her back and she never had to go through dating shitty guys that would 100% exploit her when her self-esteem was lower. Self-love is the best love. I am definitely a fan of Huda's comics now and will be reading more.

This is a very short, light-hearted comic about a young Muslim woman and the story of how she met her husband. It’s cute and interesting.
