Quite possibly the best things I’ve ever bought 🥰

Muhammad Khan’s first book was a fierce exploration of growing up Muslim in the current world and the struggles of juggling two different cultures and feeling like you’re splitting yourself in two. Kick the Moon, Khan’s second novel, makes just as big of an impact as his first. . Ilyas Mian is feeling the pressures of teen life. His crew (DedManz) is becoming more criminal in their activity, GCSEs are chasing him down, and family life is confusing and a demanding. All Ilyas wants to do is work on his comic about a British Pakistani superhero. . Kick the Moon might tackle some tough themes – toxic masculinity, bullying, gang culture, social/ familial pressure and the power of representation in popular culture – however it balances out with the pure joy of comics and the comradery of fellow nerds. . With its superhero references and teen angst, Kick the Moon is an insightful exploration of being a multi-cultural teen trying to find their way in an under-represented world. Khan questions: who can be a hero, and what does it take to be the hero you want to be? A fantastic YA read! . @panmacmillan #kickthemoon #ukya #ya #yalit #yabooks #yalove #bookishly #comics #superhero #bookreview #bookreviewer #bookblogger #bookstagram #bookworm #booknerd #booklover #fullybooked (at Liverpool) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxKNFWcHdH3/?igshid=wskki2ck6fur

This month’s @bookishlyuk I love vintage books with “a little extra charm” and I can’t wait to try the Iron Goddess tea. I’ve only read The Third Man so it will be nice to try something else by Greene #bookishly #Tea
