Sofia Khan is Not Obliged is the hilarious and fresh debut novel by
Ayisha Malik.
"Brilliant idea! Excellent! Muslim dating? Well, I had no idea you were
allowed to date." Then he leaned towards me and looked at me
sympathetically. "Are your parents quite disappointed?"
Unlucky in love once again after her
sort-of-boyfriend/possible-marriage-partner-to-be proves a little too
close to his parents, Sofia Khan is ready to renounce men for good. Or
at least she was, until her boss persuades her to write a tell-all
expose about the Muslim dating scene.
As her woes become her work, Sofia must lean on the support of her
brilliant friends, baffled colleagues, and baffling parents as she seeks
stories for her book. But in amongst the marriage-crazy relatives,
racist tube passengers, and polygamy-inclined friends, could there be a
lingering possibility that she might just be falling in love?
