Internment

Samira has created a chilling, powerful, all-too-real near future that's a must-read for everyone's TBR. * Karen M. McManus, author of One Of Us Is Lying *
[A] magnetic novel . . . this is a story that seems uncomfortably prescient in these uncertain times, but it's also one of hope and resistance. Author Ahmed is proving herself to be a YA gem. * Stylist magazine *
Very timely . . . A rallying call against the complicity of silence on modern racism * Independent *
A timely YA novel set in a terrifying 'fifteen minutes in the future' USA . . . In a world that's constantly creating boundaries and walls between races, religions and nations, Internment is a powerful and relevant book that reads less like a piece of fiction and more a scarily plausible future scenario. Yet what should resonate with readers is the hope at the heart of the tale. If you enjoyed The Hate U Give, this should be at the top of your TBR pile when March rolls around. * CultureFly *
