Blogging From A to Z Challenge – Muslim Voices
Check out these nine titles about characters who practice Islam, who (mostly) live in the U.S. Their experiences vary greatly depending on the story, just like characters in other stories. My broken record snippet for this challenge – diverse titles are for everyone and everyone has a different experience. If you’re looking for other titles, check out the previous post about characters living in the Middle East, many of which are also Muslim.
And if you’re looking for more titles, check out Salaam Reads, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, specifically designed to publishes titles with Muslim characters.
