one day, when i feel brave enough, i'll gift my mother this book. for now, i'm content with feeling grateful other moroccan muslim women are being published, and hope to be one of them someday.

This book is ultimately missing the "so what". There isn't a strong link or thesis that ties the various stories together in a satisfying way.
