Nearly felt dismayed about your liking, it, but decided it wasn't worth too much dismay. I raved about Jaclyn Moriarty, after all, so it's not an anti-Australian YA writer bias or anything. ;)
It depends a lot on the book, whether I stick with it despite disliking it - I might finish this one anyway just for the educational purpose. Though I'd honestly rather read a well-written essay on the subject. But I'd be interested to know if things are really that bad in Sydney now - don't think girls wearing the hijab in Dublin get even second looks (though, admittedly, I don't know about some parts of town).
