Amina has always been happy just hanging out with her best friend, but now she feels like everything is different as Soojin becomes friends with one of the "cool" girls in class. Amina grapples with questions about whether she needs to change who she is to fit in or hide her true self. Her life is further complicated when her local mosque is vandalized, leaving her feeling devastated and unsure of how to move forward.
