Faith, family, and finding a place between worlds

Allie Abraham’s family has kept its Muslim identity private, while her own connection to faith begins to change as she witnesses Islamophobia in her town and beyond. Her relationship with Wells brings that private history into sharper focus: his father is a prominent conservative radio host, and Allie has not told Wells about her family’s background. The story brings together questions of religious identity, family expectations, public prejudice, and the choices involved in deciding how to practice and express a faith. Its young-adult premise also places those questions within the pressures of school, friendships, and a first relationship.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in stories about identity and belonging.
  • Readers seeking young-adult fiction that explores Muslim identity and Islamophobia.
  • Readers interested in family relationships alongside questions of faith and self-expression.
