I listened to this book in just one day, I simply couldn’t stop listening.

Highly recommended, this book is not just a memoir but a tool, a mental weapon and armour for all women who are facing oppression and seek freedom and justice. Utterly Captivating and deeply inspirational From the guardianship system, which places unmarried women under the full control of their male relatives, to the secretive online underground network of Saudi runaways plotting their escape, Rebel is a gripping memoir of resistance and bravery by a woman determined to tell the truth about life in the closed kingdom. Now Rahaf tells her remarkable story for the first time and reveals the dystopian reality of what life is like for women within Saudi Arabia.

This was Rahaf’s chance at a new life, the one she had dreamed of. Her account gained 45,000 followers overnight and offered her a vital lifeline. As men pounded on her door, the teenager decided to reach out to the world on Twitter - and the world answered. It was a trick, and soon she found herself trapped, barricaded in a hotel room.

If caught, she was sure she would be killed, like other rebel women who had tried to flee her country’s oppressive regime.īut the 18-year-old only made it as far as Bangkok before her passport was taken away. In early 2019, after more than a year of careful planning, Rahaf Mohammed boarded a plane and finally escaped from Saudi Arabia. A gripping true story of bravery and sacrifice by a young woman whose escape from Saudi Arabia captivated the world.
