She Wore Red Trainers

Being a Muslim you rarely find such books and it was a fantastic read.

This is my second book of Naima, I was able to feel the care and love of a responsible muslim brothers, being a responsible daughter, the love of mother halal way of enjoying life, and the most importantly the faith in Allah.. and of course Love at first sight!! Amazing Narration Masha Allah.

This book is needed for the Young adolescents of this generation to relate to.Very apt.

Heart warming, feel-good book, just like warm chicken soup on a cold night. Beautifully written and interesting plot line.

A must read for everyone

Love this book!I don't know how I missed this book (of course, education was ruining my life the time this book came out) but yes, I am glad I read this book today!The characters are so realistic inspite of the typical ya storyline. But yes, this one will stay with me. The parents, the friends, the siblings. The Muslim community and their rich culture, the beliefs and the changing times. The discussion gets hot and quite liberating in the plot.I love this one more so because of the outspoken characters, specifically the main female character. She has a past she's not proud of but she's so responsible, she's independent and living her dreams inspite of the limitations she had to face because of the so called 'rules' a girl had to follow.I love Ali and Ami together. They are so damn cute. The story isn't fluffy and cheesy. The characters are more mature considering their ages but I can understand they have become wo they were because of the situations both of them had to face from a young age.Love the book. Quite a read I say. And I hate the unreasonable and unrealistic adult characters 🤦*Some favorite lines:"Getting married was the biggest milestone, the one piece of news a girl's parents would make sure they shared with the whole community. Once you're married, you're safe: you're off the streets, you're not a fitnah, a trial, you've got someone to take care of you."(What everyone else thinks!)"If there’s one thing I’ve learned about life, it’s this: when you are not supposed to do something, you will find it near impossible to resist and when you have to do something, you’ll find any number of excuses to avoid doing it.""I guess those things – that world – is too removed from most people’s day to day reality. Life is tough for most people. Art is for the select few, those who have the time and energy to appreciate it. You can’t appreciate beauty if you are running on empty, struggling to survive.All the more reason to choose a different type of life."
