Notes
Saints and Misfitsis an unforgettable debut novel that feels like a modern dayMy So-Called Lifestarring a Muslim teen.There are three kinds of people in my world:1. Saints, those special people moving the world forward. Sometimes you glaze over them. Or, at least, I do. Theyre in your face so much, you cant see them, like how you cant see your nose.2. Misfits, people who dont belong. Like methe way I dont fit into Dads brand-new family or in the leftover one composed of Mom and my older brother, Mamas-Boy-Muhammad.Also, theres Jeremy and me. Misfits. Because although, alliteratively speaking, Janna and Jeremy sound good together, we dont go together. Same planet, different worlds.But sometimes worlds collide and beautiful things happen, right?3. Monsters. Well, monsters wearing saint masks, like in Flannery OConnors stories.Like the monster at my mosque.People think hes holy, untouchable, but nobody has seen under the mask.Except me.Additional Notes
