Publisher's Summary
Fans of the riveting mystery in Courtney Summers's Sadie and the themes of race and religion in Samira Ahmed's Internment will be captivated by this exploration of the intersection of Islamophobia and white supremacy as an American Muslim teen is forced to confront hatred and hidden danger when she is framed for a terrorist act she did not commit.
Salma Bakkioui has always loved living in her suburban cul-de-sac, with her best friend, Mariam, next door, and her boyfriend, Amir, nearby. Then, things start to change. Friends start to distance themselves. Mariam's family moves when her father's patients no longer want a Muslim chiropractor. Even trusted teachers look the other way when hostile students threaten Salma at school.
After a terrorist bombing nearby, Islamophobia tightens its grip around Salma and her family. Shockingly, she and Amir find themselves with few allies as they come under suspicion for the bombing. As Salma starts to investigate who is framing them, she uncovers a deadly secret conspiracy with suspicious ties to her new neighbors - but no one believes her. Salma must use her coding talent, wits, and faith to expose the truth and protect the only home she's ever known - before it's too late.
Critic Reviews
"A page-turner that carries a message of radical love, regardless of faith." (Booklist)
"Recommended for readers who want a relatable and realistic portrayal of a Muslim teen with the twists and action of a suspenseful thriller." (School Library Journal)
"Lumbard’s novel succeeds in illuminating fundamental similarities across religions and portraying a harrowing situation that feels contemporary and plausible." (Publishers Weekly)

Great for modern teens.
I have to admit I am not a teenage girl so I have to say off the bat I am not the intended audience for this book. But for what it is,, its a tale of a struggling teenage half Arab, half white Muslim girl with a chronic condition who lives in a time of a terrorist plot.
Sounds interesting but the interesting part is not the terrorist stuff but the reflection of being a teenage White American girls upbringing but also rooted in the immigrant story of a past back ground. Rabiah's diverse cultural experiences really reflects well on this book. Its intelligent and filled with pop culture references. I think young Muslim woman will find lots to cherish in this book. But I also feel it will give non Muslims a glimpse of an immigrant story not unlike Jewish or Irish American stories of the past.
The Arabic pronunciation in this audio book are done well. My only complaint is her male voices don't sound well. It's not too bad since the male roles are not as abundant as the main characters dialogues.

My parents forgot something when they ran…me. After scamming most of our town out of their life savings, my folks disappeared in the middle of the night. Forced to take me in, my estranged aunt and uncle shipped me off to Raven River Academy the first chance they got. In my town, the line between the haves and the have-nots is actually a 12-foot gate that keeps the unwanted where they belong. Nothing could unite the two factions until I set foot on campus. For the first time in our history, they all agree on one thing: I must pay for my father’s sins.

Charlie and his friends enter the God Game, a video game run by underground hackers and controlled by a mysterious AI that believes it’s God. Through their phone screens and high-tech glasses, the teens’ realities blur with a virtual world of creeping vines, smoldering torches, runes, glyphs, gods, and mythical creatures. When they accomplish a mission, the game rewards them with expensive tech, revenge on high-school tormentors, and cash flowing from ATMs. Slaying a hydra and drawing a bloody pentagram as payment to a Greek god seem harmless at first. Fun even.
