"You Truly Assumed is a beautiful portrayal of the multitude of
ways to be Black and Muslim while navigating our contemporary
world. A must-read for everyone."--Adiba Jaigirdar, author of The
Henna Wars In this compelling and thought-provoking debut novel,
after a terrorist attack rocks the country and anti-Islamic
sentiment stirs, three Black Muslim girls create a space where they
can shatter assumptions and share truths. Sabriya has her whole
summer planned out in color-coded glory, but those plans go out the
window after a terrorist attack near her home. When the terrorist
is assumed to be Muslim and Islamophobia grows, Sabriya turns to
her online journal for comfort. You Truly Assumed was never meant
to be anything more than an outlet, but the blog goes viral as
fellow Muslim teens around the country flock to it and find solace
and a sense of community. Soon two more teens, Zakat and Farah,
join Bri to run You Truly Assumed and the three quickly form a
strong friendship. But as the blog's popularity grows, so do the
pushback and hateful comments. When one of them is threatened, the
search to find out who is behind it all begins, and their
friendship is put to the test when all three must decide whether to
shut down the blog and lose what they've worked for...or take a
stand and risk everything to make their voices heard. "I reached
the ending with tears in my eyes--tears cued not by sadness but
hope and elation." --S. K. Ali, New York Times bestselling author
of The Proudest Blue and Love from A to Z
