Interesting listen. It’s a one woman play, which is important to keep in mind.
The audio recording of this wasn’t that great, it was really quiet.
It’s a look into the life of a teenage girl, where she is and how she is being raised. It’s worth a listen.

A quick, engaging “read”, that is humorous as well as tackling very real teenage issues

It was fine. I didn't know what to expect, just wanted a quick distraction. This provided that. Coming of age story

I had no idea what to expect when I started this but it was hilarious and heartbreaking and all of that awkward teenage stuff.

The story is fine, but the audio quality is quite bad. I imagine this would have been interesting to see on the stage but just as an audiobook, it falls short

This was a quick listen, and I'm glad I did listen to it. This was originally a play and the author performed it as such. There was also a little interview with her after, which was a nice bonus.

This play is a great intro to youth culture in Hounslow, London!

Audible went all out on the production off this short novel/story. Full on sounds, dialect, and cultural exposition for the reader. Total immersion into the life of the main character. Well done. I did not give it 5-stars because there were some places that lost me due to a lack of familiarity with Muslim culture , that culture in the British diaspora and London/Arabic dialects. I had to rewind a few times. But the story is a strong one that resonates.
I do recommend it.
