"I found this book interesting, uncomfortably informative, addictive and necessary. “Looking for Palestine” is a memoir/coming-of-age by the young Najla Said, an actress, writer and daughter of the brilliant Edward Said (a Columbia professor and prominent advocate of Palestine independence), and Mariam Said (artist, writer and activist). I’ve seen Najla’s play of the same name, but her book took me even further into this young New Yorker’s quest to make some sense of all of her worlds. If your goal is to be immersed and moved, this is it."

Nothing special
This film has been on my Amazon watchlist for quite some time and considering the rave reviews it's had I finally decided to give it a go, and to be honest i was a little disappointed.

For me, this was no different than any other coming of age teenager type film. Think a slightly more modern version of Superbad but with two female leads. Don't get me wrong, Beanie Feldstein especially does a great job and she really is a wonderful young actor who deserves to go far. However the story itself is just not particularly different or memorable to anything we've seen before - it follows that same formula we see in all those other coming of age type films. There are some sweet heartwarming moments in this along with a few laughs, but for me it was nothing special. Feldstein makes this film and if it wasn't for her, I probably wouldn't have liked this film at all.
