Interpretation In Pursuance Of Books A Very Large Expanse of Sea

It’s 2002, a year after 9/11. It’s an extremely turbulent time politically, but especially so for someone like Shirin, a sixteen-year-old Muslim girl who’s tired of being stereotyped.

Shirin is never surprised by how horrible people can be. She’s tired of the rude stares, the degrading comments - even the physical violence - she endures as a result of her race, her religion, and the hijab she wears every day. So she’s built up protective walls and refuses to let anyone close enough to hurt her. Instead, she drowns her frustrations in music and spends her afternoons break-dancing with her brother.

But then she meets Ocean James. He’s the first person in forever who really seems to want to get to know Shirin. It terrifies her - they seem to come from two irreconcilable worlds - and Shirin has had her guard up for so long that she’s not sure she’ll ever be able to let it down.

Critique Of Books A Very Large Expanse of Sea

Tahereh Mafi better write more YA contemporary romance novels in the future because this one was absolutely moving and memorable. Its been a long time since I fell so hard for a YA love interest but Ocean was just EVERYTHING. Oh my goodness. Its both an uplifting and saddening story at times. Its beautiful and makes you believe in true love, but the heroine experiences racism throughout the story and the constant need to educate people weighs on her. Theres a bit too much angst for me to give it

4 stars If the decision youve made has brought you closer to humanity, then youve done the right thing. A Very Large Expanse of Sea is a YA Contemporary following Shirin, a Muslim teenager. It takes place a year or two after 9/11. What was interesting to me straight away was the timeline. I was also a teenager during 9/11, it happened my sophomore year of high school, so I was essentially the same age as Shirin while all this was going on. My life, however, was very different. Shirin's family

i'm emo and I WISH THERE WAS MORE

4.5 stars rounding up to 5. This book was really intense, raw and honest. I really felt how personal of a story this was for the author to write, and am grateful that she is putting this book out into the world.

This book was EVERYTHING. I posted a mini review on my blog, you can check it out HERE!I thought I understood white privilege but this book.. THIS BOOK checked my ass real quick. I dont even have words. Please just do yourself a favor and add it to your TBR immediately. Full review to come closer to release date!UMMM I REALLY NEED THIS YOU GUYS.#OwnVoicesForTheWinTahereh, darling, you are SLAYING 2018. What did we do to deserve you?

Yall mind if I cry because if youd told 16 year-old me that one day Ill read a NYT best-selling book where a Muslim Hijabi teen gets her own coming of age story and her own big romance instead of being the token (stereotyped) minority character or some cultural prop used only to further the writers favorite white girlit would have made a world of difference. So, whats this book about? Shirin could scarcely remember what her life had been like, back before the events of 9/11 had made of it the
