Status Updates From When a Brown Girl Flees

I’m full on crying now in case yall wanted to know 🥲I see so much of myself, past and present in Zahra and this book is just making me feel everything

Update I just shed some tears, goodness gracious Zahra is again such a well-written character, safe to say I need to read everything else this author has written ever because not only does her words fit together like poetry, but this book is so good I have to read everything else just because now

I almost teared up twice seeing Zahra voice some of the problems that plagued me for years and asking the same questions that I did, the same ones that always come up but I’ve learned to push away. Gosh she’s such a well written character it’s hard not to feel every emotion she does anyway, however big or small
