Book Review: Normal Calm by Hend Hegazi

Title : Normal Calm Author : Hend Hegazi Publisher : FB Publisher, Jan 1, 2014 Book Description : Amina is an Arab American woman attending one of the best universities in the US.

Thank you so much for being with us today Fatimah, Can tell us a little bit about yourself and your book Khadijah Got Her Groove?
