From the creator of Yes, I'm Hot In This, this cheeky, hilarious, and honest graphic novel asks the question everyone has to figure out for themselves—Who are you?

Huda F Are You?: A Graphic Novel by Huda Fahmy is recognised as a Kirkus Reviews Best Young Adult Book of the Century.

Huda and her family have just moved to Dearborn, Michigan, a small town with a significant Muslim population. In her old town, Huda knew exactly who she was—she was the hijabi girl. But in Dearborn, everyone is the hijabi girl.

Huda is lost in a sea of hijabis, unable to rely on her hijab to define her identity anymore. She must define herself. So, she experiments with various cliques, but she isn't a hijabi fashionista, a hijabi athlete, or a hijabi gamer. She's not the one who knows everything about her religion or the one whom all the guys like. She's miscellaneous, which leaves her feeling like no one at all.

Until she realises that discovering who she isn't, is the key to figuring out who she is.
