Great book Im muslim too and I was kinda sad to see all that racism and those stereotypes but the book was mostly about being proud of your heritage and showing who you are

I haven't finished this book yet, but it is good so far, and I can totally relate! I <3 it! There is so much of prejudice in the United States since 9/11 that I too hate admitting I'm Muslim. It's nice to know I'm not a stupid fool, and…

Slightly predictable, and honestly, too many names to comprehend to start. But the further you get into the book, the more you like it and realise you can't put it down. Definitely enlightening about Aussie culture.

Nice story about Jamilah, a Lebanese Muslim girl who is afraid to reveal her heritage to her Australian classmates for fear of being bullied. Instead she anglicizes her name, dies her hair and wears contacts. Jamilah does everything she…
