Raw and honest. I love the perspective of queer Muslim women, so often ignored by western media.

This book is a beautiful memoir that stirs emotions in a way I can't put words to. Challenging at times, it really shows the resilience of humans. I loved it and would reccomend it to anyone looking to expand their bookshelf!
