Tell Me How You Really Feel by Aminah Mae Safi
5.0
Tell Me How You Really Feel was SO CUTE!
I adored the depth to the main characters, Sana and Rachel and thoroughly enjoyed all the film references.
The exploration of femininity and the way it challenged Rachel’s negative perceptions of ‘pretty girls’. The parallel between Sana and Helen of Troy throughout the novel was so interesting and added a lot of background depth to her and successfully built up Rachel’s character development as well.
Their relationship made my little heart flutter, it was everything I could have wanted when I was in high school and I honestly love a bit of miscommunication sometimes with the enemies to lovers vibes. It was equal parts playful and angsty and I feel like it struck the perfect balance!
Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with the audiobook in exchange for my honest thoughts. The author, Amindah Mae Safi, did a wonderful job reading and I had a great time listening to her characters go about their lives in the way that she intended them to.
