Description
Amina’s world is shaken when her community is targeted and her beloved mosque is vandalized, forcing her to confront what it means to belong when safety and identity feel uncertain. As she navigates school pressures and the subtle pull to “fit in,” her friend Soojin’s suggestion that she change her name sparks a deeper question: should Amina soften her culture to be accepted, or insist on being seen as she truly is? Told with warmth and emotional clarity, this coming-of-age story explores faith, family, and the courage it takes to speak up for yourself and your community. Through Amina’s struggle to balance two worlds, the novel highlights themes of resilience, cultural pride, and the power of voice in the face of prejudice.
