The Writing On My Forehead

What a good book. The Writing On My Forehead by Nafisa Haji is the story of an Indo-Pakistani girl living in the United States. The main character, Saira is an inquisitive child, the kind who gets into trouble because of her curiosity. The story is about being that kind of person, in a world that is structured by cultural expectations, including arranged marriages. It involves her growing into herself as an independent American and a daughter of an Indo-Pakistani family. She is the kind of woman you root for, and the ending of the story was a surprise to me, I didn't get that "aha" moment till the very last pages. I highly recommend it and give it a 5!
