Misfit in Love by S.K. Ali

How to write a non-spoilery review...
I just want to cry happy tears.
This book was a perfect mix of every emotion. We have the drama, the romance, lots of confused feelings, and some serious moments too. I really liked how this book touches on some of the issues that are prevalent in Muslim communities. They’re ones I’ve experienced first hand or witnessed myself and seeing it addressed in this way was very well done.
Janna’s character growth in this book exceeded all of my expectations. We get to see her still healing after the events in Saints and Misfits, and it really goes to show how trauma can’t be just brushed away with some therapy. It comes back to Janna at times and it’s really difficult for her to understand what she’s feeling and why.
There’s just so much that happens in this book and it’s all so good.
Mohammad though lol...brothers can be so annoying but he’s so sweet and protective and caring I just can’t.
And Sarah ahhhhh. I wasn’t a huge fan of her during my first read of Saints and Misfits (because she reminded me of someone), but on my second reread and then reading this book, I just felt so happy. She has such a pure heart and tries so hard to make everyone happy and seeing Janna love her so much makes me want to cry while writing this review.
Also, the Zayneb and Adam cameo
