There’s no way he’d ever knock on doors to ask people for their votes…until he meets Maya.Maya Rehman’s having the worst Ramadan ever. Her best friend is too busy to hang out, her summer trip is cancelled, her parents are separating and now her mother thinks the solution to her problems is political canvassing - with some awkward guy she hardly knows ... Going door to door isn’t exactly glamorous, but maybe it’s not the worst thing in the world. After all, the polls are getting closer - and so are Maya and Jamie. Mastering local activism is one thing. Navigating the cross-cultural crush of the century is another thing entirely.Praise for Yes No Maybe So:'Heartwarming, poignant and very, very funny' Waterstones‘[An] entertaining story of love, politics and idealism’ The I'A novel bursting with hope, truth and action . . . Yes No Maybe So is about speaking up, showing up and being an effective ally.
