3 posts | 6 read | 3 to read
At the age of thirteen, I knew I was destined to marry John Travolta. One day he would arrive on my North London doorstep, fall madly in love with me and ask me to marry him. Then he would convert to Islam and become a devoted Muslim. Shelina is keeping a very surprising secret under her headscarf she wants to fall in love. Torn between the Buxom Aunties, romantic comedies and mosque Imams, she decides to follow the arranged-marriage route to finding Mr Right, Muslim-style. Shelinas captivating journey begins as a search for the One, but along the way she also discovers her faith and herself. A memoir with a hilarious twist from one of Britains leading female Muslim writers, Love in a Headscarf is an entertaining, fresh and unmissable insight into what it means to be a young British Muslim woman. Shelina Janmohamed is a columnist for the Muslim News and EMEL magazine and regularly contributes to the Guardian., the BBC and Channel 4. She is much in demand as a commentator on radio and television and has appeared on programmes including Newsnight and The Heaven and Earth Show. Her award-winning blog, Spirit 21, is hugely popular. Love in a Headscarf is her first book.

Sorry for the double post. I wouldn't normally post a selfie, but I want everyone to admire the beautiful headband that @LapReader made for me! Please ignore my exhausted end-of-a-long-day face. Thanks so much, Allissa!

LapReader I am so lucky that you love it. I was worried it was too simple after your beautiful cross stitch xo 6y

When it comes to the frustrations of being a modern devout woman searching for the right man to marry, I am basically the Catholic version of this author.
