I didn’t know whether I would like this when I started. If you are looking for a lot of action, this isn’t for you. It’s about life. Big things. It’s relatable even though the MC is Ghanaian. She talks about her culture specifically…but aren’t all Moms kind of the same. Annoying. lol. (I say this as a Mom.)
It’s about dating (online and otherwise). It’s about virginity, sex, friends, our parents, our relationship with our siblings, and death. There is a lot of life in it. It’s also about being Black and African and relating to your culture as a recent immigrant (one generation). It’s about working in a mostly white office setting. It’s set in England. It’s also about religion. I especially like the intersection between cultural traditions and spiritual ones. They collide and mesh. It’s very good. I am left feeling hopeful, pure, and informed.
