Description
In this poignant and powerful young adult novel, seventeen-year-old Pakistani immigrant Zara Hossain navigates the complexities of identity, culture, and family in Corpus Christi, Texas. While facing Islamophobia and the anxieties of a lengthy green card process, Zara's life is upended by an incident that threatens her family's immigration status. Sabina Khan delivers a timely and honest coming-of-age story that thoughtfully explores themes of prejudice, white privilege, and the challenges faced by immigrants, all while centering a bisexual Muslim protagonist whose identity is simply a part of her lived experience.
