When fourteen-year-old Lamya H realizes she has a crush on her female teacher, she covers up her attraction by playing up her roles as overachiever and class clown. But one day in Quran class, she reads a passage about Maryam that changes everything. Could Maryam, uninterested in men, be… like Lamya? This searingly intimate memoir in essays, tells a universal story of courage, trust, and love, celebrating what it means to be a seeker and an architect of one's own life.
