This was a book that was hard to put down. Uplifting and
challenging, Rifqa details her life as a child of a Muslim family called by God
at an early age to follow Jesus. I knew
some of the story from when it hit the news, but much of it was new or made
much clearer by her explanations. I also had no idea of the health challenges
she faced following her freedom.
I was a little put off by some of her statements and
behavior but then I realized that even though she was a Christian, she was also
a typical teenager. I was disappointed
to see what was left out of the book and that left me with more questions than
answers, especially about the senior pastor that lost his church because of the
events surrounding this event. My hope is that she has a peaceful life now and
has been able to reconcile with her family.
