one of the best YA contemporary books i've read in a while, and one that definitely should be adapted into a tv show! in the vein of never have i ever, it follows a teenager girl grappling with grief, her sexuality and finding her voice through her favourite rap artists and poetry. also like nhie, the relationship rana has with her parents, particularly her mother, is a main focus in the book as well as a strikingly accurate portrayal inside immigrant families. this was beautiful, poetic, raw and magical, and i'd highly recommend!!
