Such a beautiful, powerful, inspiring, and heartfelt book. She incorporated important details of Palestinian culture and history into this story, including small details that helped make this story even more incredible. I have more to say and want to post some favorite quotes from the book later, but for now to summarize: read this book, fuck zionism, and Free Palestine!

Wow, I wish I would have had this book as a teen. It would have helped me so much. A lot of the authors reflect on years of their youth and bringing them to present day. Truly heartfelt and inspiring stories with strong voices. The audiobook version is a treat as well with many of the authors reading their work. I’ve only read work by one of the authors, so I have a lot more to explore now. (I’m thankful to an editor of a journal I just had a piece published in for sharing reading recommendations with me when I asked her if what I wrote would be ok for the issue. Looking forward to reading her other recs as well!).
