A review by chelseatm
Saints and Misfits by S.K. Ali

3.0

I really enjoyed the new perspective (for me) of a Muslim teenager. I would love to see more young adult novels from this point of view.

The story had a lot of strong points and was interesting throughout. However, I felt that it was clumsily executed and the characters' relationships to one another felt disingenuous.

As much as I enjoyed the story and perspective, I feel like this needed another draft before being ready. This is a good book for understanding more about the Muslim experience but the story itself is not worth the read.
