Jamie Goldberg is cool with volunteering for his local state senate candidate a�" as long as hea�TMs behind the scenes. When it comes to speaking to strangers (or, leta�TMs face it, speaking at all to almost anyone) Jamiea�TMs a choke artist. Therea�TMs no way hea�TMd ever knock on doors to ask people for their votes . . . until he meets Maya.

Maya Rehmana�TMs having the worst Ramadan ever. Her best friend is too busy to hang out, her summer trip is canceled, and now her parents are separating. Why her mother thinks the solution to her problems is political canvassing a�" with some awkward dude she hardly knows a�" is beyond her.
MAYBE SO
Going door to door isna�TMt exactly glamorous, but maybe ita�TMs not the worst thing in the world. After all, the polls are getting closer a�" and so are Maya and Jamie. Mastering local activism is one thing. Navigating the cross-cultural crush of the century is another thing entirely.
