"All My Rage is a love story, a tragedy and an infectious teenage
fever dream about what home means when you feel you don't fit in." --
New York Times Book Review
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sabaa Tahir comes a
brilliant, unforgettable, and heart-wrenching contemporary novel about
family and forgiveness, love and loss, in a sweeping story that crosses
generations and continents.
Lahore, Pakistan. Then.
Misbah is a dreamer and storyteller, newly married to Toufiq in an
arranged match. After their young life is shaken by tragedy, they come
to the United States and open the Clouds' Rest Inn Motel, hoping for a
new start.
Juniper, California. Now.
Salahudin and Noor are more than best friends; they are family. Growing
up as outcasts in the small desert town of Juniper, California, they
understand each other the way no one else does. Until The Fight, which
destroys their bond with the swift fury of a star exploding.
Now, Sal scrambles to run the family motel as his mother Misbah's health
fails and his grieving father loses himself to alcoholism. Noor,
meanwhile, walks a harrowing tightrope: working at her wrathful uncle's
liquor store while hiding the fact that she's applying to college so she
can escape him--and Juniper--forever.
When Sal's attempts to save the motel spiral out of control, he and Noor
must ask themselves what friendship is worth--and what it takes to
defeat the monsters in their pasts and the ones in their midst.
From one of today's most cherished and bestselling young adult authors
comes a breathtaking novel of young love, old regrets, and
forgiveness--one that's both tragic and poignant in its tender ferocity.
