n nIn this salacious, incisive, and unapologetically Muslim (Blair Imani, activist and bestselling author of Read This to Get Smarter) novel, three best friends navigate love, sex, faith--and the one night that changes it all.n Its always been Malak, Kees, and Jenna against the world. Since childhood, under the watchful eyes of their parents, aunties and uncles, theyve learned to live their own lives alongside the expectations of being good Muslim women. Staying over at a boyfriends place is disguised as a best friends sleepover, and tiredness can be blamed on studying instead of partying. They know theyre existing in a perfect moment. With growing older and the stakes of love and life growing higher, the delicate balancing act between rebellion and religion is becoming increasingly difficult to navigate. n Malak wants the dream: for her partner, community, and faith to coexist happily, and she wants this so much shes willing to break her own heart to get it. Kees is in love with Harry, a white Catholic man who her parents can never know about. When he proposes, she must decide between her future happiness and the life she knows and family she loves. Jenna is the life of the party, always ready for new pleasures, even though shes plagued by a loneliness she cant shake. Through it all, they have always had each other. But as their college years come to a close, one night changes everything when harsh truths are revealed. n n As their lives begin to take different paths, Malak, Kees, and Jenna--now on the precipice of true adulthood--must find a way back to each other as they reconcile faith, family, and tradition with their own needs and desires. These Impossible Things is a paean to youth and female friendship--and to all the joy and messiness love holds. n nA Marie Claire Book Club Pick for June 2022 and a Most Anticipated Book by: Bustle, theSkimm, Fortune, Apartment Therapy, and BookRiotn
