  • "Yes No Maybe So" by Aisha Saeed & Becky Albertalli | Spoiler Alert Ep. 1
    Jun 9 2023

    NOTE: This episode does contain spoilers.


    For our first episode we read Yes No Maybe So by Becky Albertalli and Aisha Saeed. We first start off by discussing our general expectations for the book and what we looked forward to when we read the blurb. Kudos to Zana who did the lovely cover art. She will be doing the cover art for every episode based on our future title. You can find her other work here: https://instagram.com/zanascentral?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==


    Then we really delve into the muslim representation and if this book delivered. We discuss how many plot points might have glossed over the important themes of this book and what was the overall downfall.


    Next we look at other reviews online to get a different opinion. Then we go off and give it an official rating and if we recommend this book or not for its muslim representation.


    We finish off our first episode by choosing our next title! We hope you join us for episode two and share your thoughts so we can mention them on the show.
