I'm trying to read lots of books about Aro/Ace characters because I'm trying to feel some representation and trying to accept my
sexuality through these characters.

Aromantic (Aro) - One who does not experience romantic attraction.
Asexual (Ace) - One who does not experience sexual attraction.

Just thought I should care more about my religion.

The reason I came across this book was reviewing the reviews of 1984 as I had just read it. During one of the reviews someone called it a classic, and part of books that took them back to their High School age, when they were required to read three dystopian books. 1984, Fahrenheit 451, and the fountainhead. Since I thought 1948 was so interesting, I read Fahrenheit 451, and now the final one I have is this.

Disappointing how she must have changed. She forgot her arab roots to adopt a completely biased pro American worldview. This shows when she describes Palestinians as "harassing Israeli soldiers", and the French leaving Lebanon in the history of its creation instead of pointing out it was created by French colonizers. She also blindly called America the greatest country in the world, blindly. So very disappointed.

I'm a bit scared to read this, being an Arab American myself, and struggling with feelings of belonging. This will probably hurt , but being arab American means learning Arab American history.

Interesting so far.
