Huda Fahmy’s hilarious graphic novel for teens will delight listeners. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss the fun of listening to this lively audio adaptation. Huda’s having a bit of an identity crisis. Her family’s just moved from a small town to Dearborn, Michigan, and suddenly her personality can’t just be “the hijabi girl” because she’s not the only one. Fahmy’s wry narration perfectly captures the many ups and downs of freshman year. A full cast of narrators, music, and sound effects help tell Huda’s story as she bounces around between cliques, bickers with her sisters, makes new friends, faces down bullies and Islamophobes, and survives a raucous year of high school.
