Very educational(for everyone not just for middle grade readers). I don’t know a lot about Pakistan, but I did learn a lot in this book. I really admired Amal and how brave she was fighting for what she believes in. It’s really sad that what happens in this book happens and is usually a lot worse. I did really like the relationships she has and makes in the book. I do also think there’s a lot of good life lessons in this the main one being don’t be afraid to be brave.
