Sofia Khan is young English woman, trying to make her way through the tough world that is dating. Add to the fact that Khan is a devout, hijab-wearing Muslim with a family that keeps asking her when she will marry and a boyfriend who wants her to live with his family, and things become more complicated. When Khan is commissioned to write a book about Muslim dating, she begins exploring the intricacies of the dating world again and might even fall in love.

I really enjoyed this and it was definitely a pleasure to listen to. Sofia's voice is fresh and funny and I just loved all her interactions with everyone, from her family to her neighbour and even her co-workers. I enjoyed her own personal struggles from the racism she encountered (a guy calling her a terrorist because she bumped into him) and the roadblocks she faced because of her hijab both from non-Muslims and even her own family.I thought it interesting that Sofia was the only one to wear a hijab but I liked how she explained her choice to wear one and why religion was so important to her. A lot of her conversations and remarks about God and religion, I feel, would connect with anyone who believes in something whether it's Islam, Christianity, Judaism etc. I also liked her goal of finding someone she could share her religion with and why it was important to her to find someone Muslim and how they could develop their faith together.

Her family was just great, as well as her group of friends. It was great to see a main, female character with such a big group of supportive friends and not only in her family and Muslim community but best friends in work as well. She was definitely someone who could make friends easily, and books are often full of characters who are shy and find it hard to talk to strangers - it was refreshing to see a character who was the opposite.

I loved that this book was going in one direction and I was pretty confident how it would end up but then halfway through it COMPLETELY changed course and went another way but when I realised that, I was all for it. I LOVED IT. Sofia definitely annoyed me at times with some decisions she made, and how it took her to realise they were bad decisions. But overall, I really enjoyed this and thought it was a great look at what it's like to be a modern Muslim woman, as well as focusing on good friends, self belief and self worth and the importance of family.

The book was narrated by rita Sharma who did London and Pakistani accents really, really well, However her American accent probably needs a bit of work. But I did, for the most part, enjoy all the narration. It could get a bit annoying when it was text messages and it was "Naim:... Me:.... Naim:..." but that's just cause that sort of thing always looks better in print rather than audio.
