Sofia Khan Is Not Obliged is the hilarious and fresh debut novel by Ayisha Malik.

'Brilliant idea! Excellent! Muslim dating? Well, I had no idea you were allowed to date.' Then he leaned towards me and looked at me sympathetically. 'Are your parents quite disappointed?'

Unlucky in love once again after her sort-of-boyfriend/possible-marriage-partner-to-be proves a little too close to his parents, Sofia Khan is ready to renounce men for good. Or at least she was, until her boss persuades her to write a tell-all expose about the Muslim dating scene.

As her woes become her work, Sofia must lean on the support of her brilliant friends, baffled colleagues and baffling parents as she seeks stories for her book. But in amongst the marriage-crazy relatives, racist tube passengers and polygamy-inclined friends, could there be a lingering possibility that she might just be falling in love?

Hilarious, witty and relatable.

The storyline was so entertaining. As a Muslim woman I felt that Sofia touched on so many heavy topics elegantly without holding back on sharing the frustrations of Muslims born in the west, while comically revealing what they truly think about their immigrant families that live in the past. A very entertaining read and an amazing ending.
