There’s so much more to this book than just a story about being an athletic Muslim girl. Sadia is a 15 year old who loves to play basketball. As a practicing Muslim, she has decided to wear a hijab at all times and it does interfere occasionally when she is playing basketball. Her best friend Mariam is struggling to come to terms with who she wants to be and does not where her hijab all the time. There is tension between them but Mariam comes through in a big way when it counts. Readers also meet Amira, a recent refugee from Syria whose immigration story is very different from Sadia’s. A well-written story certain to fly off the shelves. Something tells me I should buy two copies! (

Sadia is a devout Muslim, one who practices modesty and wears a hijab. When her best friend Nazreen begins to remove her hijab, Sadia feels conflicted and a bit left out. When she makes the basketball team, she finds her modest clothes hindering and restrictive.

This was a fairly quick read. I would have liked to see how religion affected her in other areas, other than the book being hyper focused on the hijab. For example, prayer and diet were briefly mentioned, but didn't seem very important. The concept of passion projects was an interesting concept, and I would have liked to read more about them. Overall, the book felt a bit rushed and could have used details aside from basketball and the hijab. (
