Fatima K, Reviewer
I had a grin on my face the entire time I was reading this book because oh my gosh was this the kind of book I would have LOVED as a kid! I was always really into detective stories, so I just know that little bookworm Fatima would have been so excited to read a detective story with a main character who's British-Pakistani. I haven't read very many middle-grade books since I was the target age myself, and the ones I have read have been (predictably) very white. I thought the representation was done really well in this book, with Urdu words and references to South Asian foods sprinkled throughout. Honestly, I think I'm way too excited about the existence of a fun children's book with a South Asian main character to provide a properly coherent review, but I'm so, SO glad that South Asian kids get to grow up with books like this and have fun, smart characters like Zaiba to look up to. I actually haven't read the first book in this series but I definitely will, and I will certainly be recommending it to anyone I know with middle-grade aged kids!
I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
