BLOG TOUR: The Oyster Thief





Today's blog post is an interview with Sonia Faruqi, the 
author of The Oyster Thief which comes out 
October 16th. Myself and some other bloggers have 
come together to celebrate the release and share some 
exciting posts until the day of release.


The Oyster Thief is a tale of Coralline, a mermaid on a 
quest to find a magic elixir to save her brother. She meets 
Izar, a human who is also on a quest to find a cure for his 
dying father. The two continue their journey together, but 
the secrets they hide threaten the trust and affection they 
have built for one another.


I asked Sonia Faruqi some questions about her 
upcoming book as well as some questions 
about her journey as a writer/author.

Synopsis:

It’s 2002, a year after 9/11. It’s an extremely turbulent time politically, but especially so for someone like Shirin, a sixteen-year-old Muslim girl who’s tired of being stereotyped.

Shirin is never surprised by how horrible people can be. She’s tired of the rude stares, the degrading comments—even the physical violence—she endures as a result of her race, her religion, and the hijab she wears every day. So she’s built up protective walls and refuses to let anyone close enough to hurt her. Instead, she drowns her frustrations in music and spends her afternoons break-dancing with her brother.
