Rebellions are built on hope.
Set in a horrifying 'fifteen minutes in the future' United States, seventeen-year-old Layla Amin is forced into an internment camp for Muslim-Americans along with her parents.
With the help of newly-made friends also trapped within the 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 questions the imaginary boundaries that separate us and challenges readers to fight the complicit silence that exists in our society today.

Review:
Samira has created a chilling, powerful, all-too-real near future that's a must-read for everyone's TBR. (Karen M. McManus, author of One Of Us Is Lying)
[A] magnetic novel . . . this is a story that seems uncomfortably prescient in these uncertain times, but it's also one of hope and resistance. Author Ahmed is proving herself to be a YA gem. (Stylist magazine)
Very timely . . . A rallying call against the complicity of silence on modern racism (Independent)
A timely YA novel set in a terrifying 'fifteen minutes in the future' USA . . . In a world that's constantly creating boundaries and walls between races, religions and nations, Internment is a powerful and relevant book that reads less like a piece of fiction and more a scarily plausible future scenario. Yet what should resonate with readers is the hope at the heart of the tale. If you enjoyed The Hate U Give, this should be at the top of your TBR pile when March rolls around. (CultureFly)
Chillingly plausible, a story of hate ultimately becomes one of hope as Ahmed challenges readers to fight the complicit silence of racism. (The Bookseller, Ones to Watch)
A tremendous novel. (the Guardian)
Chillingly plausible (Financial Times)
A powerful and poignant exploration of a nightmare made real. It's a testament to Ahmed's writing then, that the heart of the story is one of hope. Read INTERNMENT. Raise a fist. (David Arnold, New York Times bestselling author of Mosquitoland)
A testament to what girls are capable of when they are overlooked, Internment is a masterwork of dignity and grit. (E.K. Johnston, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Exit, Pursued by a Bear)
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)
