I am a HUGE fan of Huda Fahmy's books, so I was of course absolutely thrilled that she came out with a third book in the series. It's just as funny and heartwarming as the others are. I sincerely hope she releases another!

Loved this next title in Huda’s continuing adventures. The humor is always on point and Huda’s experiences are relatable to young readers. Highly recommend!

*Received an e-arc from netgalley for an honest review*

I love Huda's books. I think they do a fantastic job of sharing what it is actually like to be a teenager and to have so many emotions. I also appreciate how she shares her Muslim and Arab culture and family dynamics. This book talk about divorce and mental health AND it's funny, not an easy thing to do. I think it is a great read for anyone struggling with these issues. I also really appreciate the resources she provided at the back of the book. The only improvement I could see for this book is if it provided a glossary for Muslim and Arabic terms so that those not familiar or from this culture could have an easy reference.

I think this was a great installment in the Huda series. It kept its comedic tone, but managed to realistically break down the various reactions and grieving of children going through divorce. This one took a closer look at the importance of mental health too, without it feeling overly preachy or pedantic. Huda's reaction at a mental health panel she attends was reminiscent of some of my own moment's of realization of certain inner feelings growing up. I loved seeing the struggles in her relationships, but also the love, understanding, and forgiveness that exists within them. I, as always, look forward to Huda Fahmy's next book.

This book has the same problem as every single graphic novel I’ve read, the book goes too fast to feel like the characters are well developed. However, in all other aspects this book was great. It tackled divorce and what it means for a family and how they get treated by the community. It talks about mental health in the Muslim community and the effects divorce can have on it. It was actually really well done.

This was different from what I was used to with Huda's collection but I found it it quite sweet and useful for young Muslims. The art is the same and Huda's honesty is still there. I think showing others that they are not alone is always good especially when it from your own demographic. 5 stars.

I have read every single one of the Huda F graphic novels and have loved all of them. This was a great continuation of Huda and her family’s story. I enjoy being able to glimpse a culture and religion that is different than mine, while also acknowledging the many similarities teens and their families experience. Great book and definitely recommend.

Thank you Penguin Young Readers, Dial Books, and NetGalley for the advanced electronic review copy of this book. Huda Fahmy does it again. In her signature style she continues describing Muslim-American experience. This book deals with divorce so it’s a bit heavier than usual, yet her humor is shining through. Definitely recommend this book.

This was absolutely phenomenal- this graphic novel represents experiences of many teens and through the lens of muslim teens in particular. I think that this probably is a great way for muslim teens to see themselves represented and for teens who aren't muslim to better understand their peers!

As an adult, I thoroughly enjoyed the storytelling and humor in Huda F Wants to Know! I'm so glad to have read this!

Although this is the third book in the series, Huda F Wants to Know? might be the most impactful. Fahmy discusses grief, stigma and mental health with careful thought but also with wry amusement. Our protagonist is still her sarcastic self, but she is eventually able to address tough topics and learn more about herself and her family and friends, organically, through a story that could not possibly be more timely.

Brilliant! I've loved all of Huda Fahmy's graphic novels, but this one was amazing. Her characters are so alive and believable and her ability to make me laugh out loud while reading about a topic as difficult as divorce was incredible.

Huda F does it again. I completely related to her struggles, being a teen of divorce and constantly asking myself, what did I do wrong and how do I fix it. She addresses her struggles with humor that doesn't go over the top. I can remember keeping my parents' divorce a secret over the years out of shame until learning years later many of my friends and classmates went through the same thing. No matter our differences in culture/religion, Huda brings to the forefront the same struggles we all faced throughout this time and how we all have to adapt to a new normal. Special shoutout to tbe sneak peak at her husband Gehad! Definitely caught that one! Cannot wait to get this one into the library collection.

Throughout her other memoirs published so far, Huda Fahmy’s parent’s divorce has loomed large without ever being looked at in detail. This new book finally depicts this portion of her life, but the focus of the book is not as much on her relationships with her parents and sister (though these still play a large role) and more on the how this time in her life affected her mental health and how it led her to seek help. In the process, it gives some very nice information on the nature of grief; in fact, she includes some mental health resources specifically for Muslim youth at the end. She also addresses how both divorce and mental health issues are responded to in the Muslim community. Frankly, I would have liked to see her dive even deeper into but respect her pacing decisions in creating this well-structured tale.

Though still a bit overly minimal, Fahmy’s art style continues to grow more fluid and confident with every full-length book and the mini-Hudas who started out as a kind of shoulder angel and shoulder devil have morphed into snarky Greek chorus members who dramatize Huda’s internal monologue while being entertaining characters in their own right. Her humorous touch remains strong even as she recounts what are perhaps the least humorous events she has yet dealt with.

The most inward-looking of Fahmy’s memoirs so far, but perhaps also the most universal, Huda F Wants to Know is an example of her changing direction while still going from strength to strength.

Huda deals with mental health struggles and her parents divorce in this third book in the Huda F series by Huda Fahmy. As the titles have progressed the art has become more assured and the storytelling more tightly constructed. Fahmy's art, especially her sense of layout and timing are on-point, here, helping the jokes land more easily, and the pacing feels stronger than earlier entries.

Great preview of this graphic novel for YA readers. I had not read the first book in the series, so felt a bit lost on some of the characters. Definitely adds a depth of understanding to the Muslim experience in the United States. Definitely recommend for YA libraries, particularly if some of the population served includes Muslim students and adults.

Thanks to NetGalley, the Publisher and Author for an eARC of this graphic novel in exchange for my honest review.

This might be the heaviest yet most compelling installment to date in the Huda F series.

Add normal teenage woes, pressures of being a Muslim female along with the universal challenge and pain of a family going through divorce and you'll get the drama, valuable lessons, eventual slow perspective and growth this story builds gently and enjoyablely. The author brings the reader in on the mental health journey Huda F travels and does so beautifully.

I can't wait to see how Huda is doing Senior Year!

Fahmy ,Huda. Huda F Wants to Know?. Dial Books, 2025, 978-0593855621. $17.99. 224p. Grades 7-9

Description: Huda is ready to rock Junior Year of high school. She has a very clear plan of how to get into the colleges she wants AND how to get a full scholarship! But, life as she knew it seems to change at the drop of a hat when her Baba (father) and Mama announce that they are getting a divorce. This changes Huda’s life drastically and at times in way she never could have expected, like ghosting her friends, not caring about schoolwork, and a variety of other behaviors that are just “not like Huda”. With a positive look on therapy, Huda gets the help she needs to process and grieve her parents relationship, and her life before the divorce.

Thoughts: This graphic novel takes reader’s through the various emotions that teens can experience when parents choose to separate. While the graphic novel covers something that can at times be very heavy, divorce, it adds in humor and lightheartedness to the conversation and does a great job showing that there is not just one way to process things like divorce.

This was my first experience with Huda although her books have been on my TBR for awhile so I was very excited when I received this ARC from NetGalley. As a high school counselor I can say that Huda was experiencing many things that my Junior and Seniors are experiencing. College Applications, Advanced placed class, dual enrollment and building relationships. This being a lot like being at work may have influenced my rating a bit but I can see this being an amazing introductory to Junior year for my incoming Juniors. I also think this would benefit a lot of parents to see how much their decisions affect kids who are in high school because sometimes it feels like they think it should not affect them at that age anymore.

Thanks to NetGalley and Dial Press for this arc, which I received in exchange for an honest review.

I’m only a little bit familiar with Huda’s works online because my sister is a fan. This was my first experience reading a book by her.

I thought it was an interesting book, about a girl and her siblings navigating a difficult time of their lives when their parents decided to get a divorce. Since this was taken from her own life experience, I’m sure it was not an easy feat for Huda to make it into a story. Yet, she portrayed their feelings and how each of them dealt with the heartbreaking news so well and topped it all off with sprinkles of comedy.

I did wish I had read her other books going into this because they were some things mentioned that I would have appreciated more had I read her earlier works.

Thank you NetGalley and PenguinTeen for the uncorrected e-arc!

This was a great addition to this author's catalog. In it, we follow Huda, who's parents have announced that they are getting a divorce. Huda is also dealing with driving school, writing an essay to get a college scholarship, and so much else. She struggles with all of these things and feels like no one understands what she's going through.
I've read all of Huda's books and I've loved all of them. They show a side of divorce that's not seen to much in graphic novels. Even though this had some more serious undertones, I really enjoyed reading it. I always love the art style that these books are drawn in and this one was no exception. I would highly recommend checking out this book and the author's other books as well.
