She doesnt feel understood by her mother, who grew up in a different land. She doesnt feel accepted in her suburban town; yet somehow, she isnt different enough to belong elsewhere. Her best friend, Haitham, is the only person with whom she can truly be herself. Until she cant, and suddenly her only refuge is gone. As the ground is pulled out from under her, Nima must grapple with the phantom of a life not chosen—the name her parents meant to give her at birth—Yasmeen. But that other name, that other girl, might be more real than Nima knows. And the life Nima wishes were someone elses. . . is one she will need to fight for with a fierceness she never knew she possessed.
