Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Five million stars please! A truly excellent book. The sometimes subtle sometimes extreme Islamophobia and Xenophobia in the book cut my heart out exactly like on page 161. But Huda F* is beautiful and her stories have my heart always. Reading this one after “That Can Be Arranged” made me smile to think how much Huda has grown and found herself over the years. *Huda F as in the character. While the books may be inspired by the author, I don’t proclaim to know or speak on behalf of the author and her experiences ♥️! This was good! It had me laughing out loud at several parts. But it also deals with some serious topics like micro aggressions, standing up for yourself, and self esteem. I really liked the way the art was done and the parts that zoomed in on people’s faces and had just the eyes highlighted in a bar for intensity was hilarious. I could definitely identify with some of the awful high school moments like zits, dealing with your period, feeling like you don’t fit in, and having your teachers continually mispronounce your name no matter how many times you correct them. But then on top of these normal high school problems, Huda had to deal with racism and prejudice. I really like how the story ended! Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Huda and her family just moved to Dearborn, Michigan, a small town with a big Muslim population. In her old town, Huda knew exactly who she was: She was the hijabi girl. But in Dearborn, everyone is the hijabi girl. Huda is lost in a sea of hijabis, and she can't rely on her hijab to define her anymore. She has to define herself. So she tries on a bunch of cliques, but she isn't a hijabi fashionista or a hijabi athlete or a hijabi gamer. She's not the one who knows everything about her religion or the one all the guys like. She's miscellaneous, which makes her feel like no one at all. Until she realizes that it'll take finding out who she isn't to figure out who she is. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

A younger Huda had to reconcile with identity, loneliness, validation, ignorance, and discrimination. And some parts of this were very relatable to me like going to church every week, halaqa in her case, and the confessing to a boy you liked him. I almost did that! Somehow, I feel like it would've blown up in my face just like it did for her lol. Pretty charming.
Only nitpick(s): I think the artwork adds some charm, but I think collaborating with another artist could've also been nice. But that's personal preference.
The ending resolution felt slightly rushed.
