Teen Graphic Novel Book Club: Huda F Are You?

 

Join BKLYN librarian Jessi G's monthly virtual book club for teens. We will read and talk about graphic novels, both fiction and non-fiction. 

For our January meeting, we'll discuss Huda F Are You? by Huda Fahmy. 

"Huda and her family just moved to Dearborn, Michigan, a small town with a big Muslim population. In her old town, Huda knew exactly who she was: She was the hijabi girl. But in Dearborn, everyone is the hijabi girl. Huda is lost in a sea of hijabis, and she can't rely on her hijab to define her anymore. She has to define herself. So she tries on a bunch of cliques, but she isn't a hijabi fashionista or a hijabi athlete or a hijabi gamer. She's not the one who knows everything about her religion or the one all the guys like. She's miscellaneous, which makes her feel like no one at all. Until she realizes that it'll take finding out who she isn't to figure out who she is."
