Rebellions are built on hope.

Set in a horrifying near-future United States, 17-year-old Layla Amin and her parents are forced into an internment camp for Muslim American citizens.

With the help of newly made friends also trapped within the internment camp, her boyfriend on the outside, and an unexpected alliance, Layla begins a journey to fight for freedom, leading a revolution against the internment camp's director and his guards.

Heart-racing and emotional, Internment challenges listeners to fight complicit silence that exists in our society today.

"A riveting and cautionary tale. Internment urges us to speak up and speak out, to ask questions and demand answers, and when those answers prove unsatisfactory, to resist." (Stacey Lee, award-winning author of Outrun the Moon)

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Taking on Islamophobia and racism in a Trump-like America, Ahmed's magnetic, gripping narrative written in a deeply humane and authentic tone, is attentive to the richness and complexity of the social ills at the heart of the book." (Kirkus, starred review)

"[A] poignant, necessary story that paints a very real, very frank picture of hatred and ignorance, while also giving readers and marginalized individuals hope." (Booklist, starred review)

"An unsettling and important book for our times." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

Featured Article: Excellent Dystopian Listens Like The Hunger Games


The popularity of Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games trilogy and its film adaptations has paved the way for so many great dystopian books and series in YA, imagining harrowing worlds where teens must fight for survival and define what life means to them. The enduring popularity of the series has proven that dystopian stories and the sometimes-dark futures they imagine are endlessly fascinating to our imaginations.

Wow, this was so intense. I was enraged and despondent and had all the feels while listening to this. It was so real and scary because I think we are kind of on the path to this now. It's a call to do more, pay more attention, and don't stay silent when you see something wrong happening. Layla was scared, who wouldn't be, but knew what was happening was not right and spoke up. I saw some reviews that said she made too many waves and should have kept quiet. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! No way should she have just followed the rules, even if there were harsh consequences. Layla had to speak up for what was right and gave others the courage to do the same. That's the entire point of the book.
The narrator was amazing, she totally embodied the voice of Layla to me and added an extra impact that made me love listening to this. Definitely recommend listening to this one!

The audio made this for me!

If this book had been clearly hypothetical with no reference to current politicians than perhaps it would have been a better read, but the authors intent was clearly to bash the Trump administration and the way the American government works by missing using sound bites, exaggerating policies, and placing a greater stereotype on those with conservative views than is factual, thus creating unnecessary fear of where America is headed. I was offended that the soldiers were all white males as if to imply that our military is not represented by persons of every gender, faith, race, and nationalities. I also was disturbed by the blanket view that people who still hold fast to traditional values are filled with hate towards those who are different. The fact that the story is told from a teenage girls perspective, whose mouth is excessively foul, adds to the dismay that his is the type of future our country has seeing as she is painted as the hero despite her foolish and boy crazy coincidentally lead her to be the leader. I feel this book also misrepresents Muslim people as the girl shows little evidence of her faith, but rather Islam as a culture.

Politically bias, perpetuates hate

This book was beautiful. I don't know how to out my feelings into words for this book, but I want everyone to read it.

Absolutely amazing

This book is such a window into what is possible if we do not take a stand, as well as what people in the past experienced. I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. I really believe that this book has the power to change the hearts and minds of Americans far and wide.

Heart wrenching

The narration was very slow. Once I sped it up to 1.25, it didn’t get in the way of enjoying the story.

Great Story

This book had a really solid concept and over all it did a decent job of relaying what it was trying to say. It took on a really tough subject one that sadly keeps getting more and more relevant with each passing day. It made the subject palatable to a wider ranger of people without becoming preachy. (Though I never really mind when that happens).
That all being said I am curious how much more in-depth and visceral Ahmed could have gotten if she had written this book for older teens or even adults. I realize the point was to make the story more accessible but I feel like maybe it just could have packed a bit more of a punch if it was set for just a slightly older audience but again that is all just more of a personal curiosity than a real critique.
My only really "problem" with this story was the underlying romance... I know I am always complaining about romances popping up in places they don't belong but in the case of this book it just sort of cheapens the whole story for me. I felt that the romance not only didn't fit but it was just added to appease people. The romance felt like an after though in some places and in others it undermined her whole purpose. If I have said this once I have said it a thousand times, stop adding in a romance to a book it has no business in! It may gain you a few readers but it cheapens the overall experience of your story. If it was not for that romance I would have given this book a 4.5 or even 4.7 stars.
All that being said I would recommend this book to anyone. This book is so timely and its something we all need to consider. This book really made me step back and wonder not only what I would do but what I can do now. Like I said in the beginning overall this book did exactly what it was meant to do. It made me stop and consider.

Great story

I couldn't put this book down. I cried many times but was very good. It is worth reading! This book also relates to what's going on now in the world.

Be sure to read authors note at the end. Definitely worth using audible to be able to listen to it, narrator did a Great job.

Powerful

From a seventeen year old girl’s perspective, this book encourages self expression and community support. It teaches not to judge a hero by their race, religion or station. Unlikely heroes carry this story. The ending will remain in my thoughts for years.

Bravo
