“If You Could Be Mine” by Sara Farizan (247 pages)

This realistic fiction story is about two teenage best friends, Sahar and Nasrin, who grow up in modern-day Iran. With Sahar motherless, Nasrin’s family has been there for her since she was just a child but things start to change when there are suspicions of the girls having a secret relationship. In Iran, homosexuality is illegal and sometimes even punishable by death, but getting a sex change isn’t. Is Sahar willing to go through surgery to be with the love of her life? If so, she needs to hurry, and fast, because Nasrin is getting married off, thanks to her parents. 

This book is a quick read and is hard to put down. If you’re someone who enjoys suspense and panic, this book is the one for you.
