Klappentext zu „Huda F Are You? “
From the creator of Yes, I'm Hot In This, this cheeky, hilarious, and honest graphic novel asks the question everyone has to figure out for themselves: Who are you?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.

Praise for Huda F Are You?A 2022 NCSS-CBC Notable Social Studies Trade Books List Selection
A 2023 ALA Rise: A Feminist Book Project Pick
"Fahmy portrays the negotiations of identity be it social, cultural, or personal in high school with humor and genuine warmth . . . [a] funny, thoughtful story of negotiating school dynamics, cultural identity, and individual agency." BCCB
"Fahmy comedically captures Huda s embarrassing moments, conflicting desires for validation and acceptance, and the sarcasm she uses as a coping mechanism when facing everyday Islamophobia, xenophobia, bigotry, and microaggressions . . . Hilarious, charming, and much needed." Kirkus
"[An] unconventional fish-out-of-water story . . . [an] entertaining, frequently wry fictionalized memoir." Publishers Weekly
"In her signature loose, expressive cartooning style, Fahmy deftly balances humor and seriousness . . .
