About this listen
'Captures the fierceness of female friendship' BETH O'LEARY | 'The essential book on sisterhood' NIKITA GILL
Shortlisted for the Diverse Book Awards 2023
Three women. One life-changing friendship. One chance to stop it all falling apart . . .
Jenna, Kees and Malak have been friends for years: the three of them together against the world. But when one night changes everything, they're left adrift from one another as their lives take different paths.
Encountering new milestones and heartbreaks without each other's support feels increasingly difficult--in the wake of heartbreaks, marriages, new careers and new beginnings, they need each other more than ever. Will they be able to forgive each other in time?
These Impossible Things tells the story of three British Muslim women reconciling love, loss, womanhood, faith and how we navigate the bumps in life that can feel impossible to overcome.

Faith, Fate & Friendship
Such a tender telling of how fate, faith and friendship collide. I was caught between not being able to stop listening and not wanting it to ever end. A truly beautiful story which I will most definitely be sharing with others.

beautiful words and storytelling
I have listened to this for a second time, and was again totally gripped. I love the well rounded and realistic characters - the 3 women at the centre of the story but also the men who were part of their lives, the good and bad. The actor reading the book is wonderful, her voice was the perfect match for those words. Im a big fan of Salma El-wardany, she's an absolute boss, so inspirational!
