A hilarious and heartwarming coming-of-age story about a strong, Muslim girl navigating friendships, family, and first love.
Not the Girls You're Looking For follows Lulu Saad, a fierce and funny protagonist who thinks she's got it all under control. With her three best friends by her side, nothing can stop her from conquering the world. But when Lulu causes a scene during Ramadan and nearly drowns a cute guy at a party, she realizes she may have done more damage than she thought.
As Lulu tries to repair friendships and family alliances, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Aminah Mae Safi's honest and smart debut novel explores the complexities of being a biracial Muslim teenager, delving into themes of multicultural identity, religion, and the power of female friendships.
Perfect for readers aged 12-18, this own voices story is a must-read for anyone looking for a relatable and empowering tale about finding yourself in the midst of chaos.
