I think this book was incredibly impactful and really the main gripes I had with the book were focused on the structure of the book itself. At times more towards the first half of the book the switches between childhood and adulthood felt more jarring in terms of the flow of the story as well as the interweaving of stories from the Quran. While I saw the value in the stories being told and the reflection it made the book slower to get into initially but became more relevant as the book went on to better understand Lamya’s later adulthood experiences and their changing ways of navigating different spaces.

All of the warnings should be fairly obvious going into this. The material is hard to contend with at times, but very very worth it.
