Publisher Description
WINNER OF THE YA BOOK PRIZE 2022! Hani and Ishu couldn't be less alike - and they definitely don't like each other. But when fates collide and they pretend to date each other, things start to get messy... A heart-warming queer YA love story for fans of Becky Albertalli.
Everyone likes Hani Khan - she's easy going and one of the most popular girls at school. But when she comes out to her friends as bisexual, they don't believe her, claiming she can't be bi if she's only dated guys. Panicked, Hani blurts out that she's in a relationship... with a girl her friends can't stand - Ishu Dey.
Ishu is the polar opposite of Hani. An academic overachiever, she hopes that becoming head girl will set her on the right track for university. Her only problem? Becoming head girl is a popularity contest and Ishu is hardly popular. Pretending to date Hani is the only way she'll stand a chance of being elected.
Despite their mutually beneficial pact, they start developing real feelings for each other. But some people will do anything to stop two Bengali girls from achieving happily ever after.
Customer Reviews
Thank you adiba with all my heart!
As a Bangladeshi Muslim queer, never have I ever thought I would get to see Muslim Bangladeshi queer representation in fiction. It feels surreal to me. Thank you for this amazing work of art. I am so overwhelmed I’m not sure where to start. This was everything I’ve never thought of reading or coming across. I hope all the queer people specially those who are not fortunate enough to celebrate their identity with their community have an amazing day and everything works out well for them. Thank you adiba for this book. Much much appreciated.
A real page turner...
Amazing! My heart fluttered more times than I can count. Brilliantly written! I’ve never felt more represented in a book. Thank you for the visibility. A real page turner!
