Review :
Fun, fresh and funny Ayisha Malik has spoiled me for eternity with this book . . .Never in my life has a character touched me as much as Sofia Khan. Made me laugh out loud . . . Sofia Khan Is Not Obliged is a contemporary, witty and refreshing women's fiction novel which I thoroughly enjoyed! A brilliant first novel . . . in some ways I enjoyed this book even more than Bridget Jones Sofia Khan is NOT Obliged is the new (I dare to say it, better) Bridget Jones. It's intelligent, very funny, sharp, heart-breaking, witty, superbly plotted, realistic, and a feminist love story without gush. It will remind white readers who don't have Muslim friends of Bend It Like Beckham, and it is simply a joy to read. It's also damn well written. The book is actually HILARIOUS and I mean hilarious; I had to stop reading it in public because I was laughing at every page and everybody eyeing you awkwardly gets...well... awkward . . . a funny, honest portrayal of one woman's journey through some of the hardest and happiest times, featuring a great band of diverse characters full of life and lessons. It was so refreshing to have a humorous take on the customs of this culture without an apologetic voice attached. It's funny, it's heart-breaking, it's heart-warming and it has a protagonist who's determined to live life and write her book her way. Sofia Khan is Not Obliged was a welcome change. It offered a cheeky, intelligent, fallible heroine who, although I may not share her faith or culture, I could identify with more easily than most of the other protagonists in the genre. Once I started reading, I could not put the book down - it's the only thing I've read this year that kept me up past midnight.
