"This is an important book and should be read by anyone interested in American Muslim youth" * Journal of Religion *
"A well written and insightful book, one that cannot fail to illuminate the lives of many young Islamic women who find themselves caught between wanting to 'be good Muslims' and yet 'be American' at the same time." * Critique of Anthropology *
