"“Living in fear knowing who you are is still better than living in oblivion—blindfolded, crashing into every wall, pretending to be someone you’re not.”
I really enjoyed reading this fictionalised glimpse into Egyptian life as it is for LGBTQ people. " Read more of this review » |

“Silence is multifunctional. It can be an attitude, an answer, a warning, a way to avoid a fight, a sedative, and a secret keeper. Silence is the mute heart, the lonely ache, the hidden feeling, the guilty conscience, the disappointment, the shame, the private victory. Silence is “sorry,” “don’t leave,” “help,” “forgive me,” “miss you,” “love you,” and “shut up.” Silence can carry messages more eloquent than the best public speaker. It’s a language no one but its users can hear.”

“Sometimes the strangest stranger is ourselves. You might be good at reading everyone else, just not yourself. Your subconscious sends you hints, but if you don’t learn how to read them, you stay in the dark. The good news is, once you do—or once someone helps you—you finally get to be who you are, even if it means living with limits.”
