Description - Bestest. Ramadan. Ever. by Medeia Sharif
I vow that this will be my first successful fast for Ramadan. My family does this every year, even though I've been to a mosque exactly twice. My oppressive parents also forbid dating, even though Peter might be my soul mate. How can I get him to notice me? Will I ever feel like a typical American girl? No pizza. No boyfriend. (No life.) Okay, so during Ramadan, we're not allowed to eat from sunrise to sunset. For one whole month. My family does this every year, even though I've been to a mosque exactly twice in my life. And it's true, I could stand to lose a few pounds. (Sadly, my mom's hotness skipped a generation.) But is starvation really an acceptable method? I think not. Even worse, my oppressive parents forbid me to date. This is just cruel and wrong. Especially since Peter, a cute and crushable artist, might be my soul mate. Figures my bestest friend Lisa likes him, too. To top it off, there's a new Muslim girl in school who struts around in super-short skirts, commanding every boy's attention-including Peter's. How can I get him to notice me? And will I ever figure out how to be Muslim and American? AGES: 12 to 18 AUTHOR: Medeia Sharif is a Kurdish-American author and high school English teacher.
