Odd girl out
Tasneem Abdur-Rashid (Author)
Meet Maaryah. 15. Lover of fashion, k-dramas, old school hip hop and trainers - ready to step into Year 11 in the tiny school that she and her friends rule. Only now she's having to say bye-bye to Dubai and her life of luxury... and hello to dreary London, where things get... complicated. There are house parties, annoying-yet-fit boys and the isolating reality of being the only hijabi in a massive school. Plus her parents' shocking divorce has left her wanting answers... Can Maaryah stay true to herself, even when another bombshell rocks her world?
