Most Eligible Bachelor

 Its been a while since I picked up a romance novel. I don't think I've even read any since I got bored of my teenage Mills& Boon pleasurable days and I must say I'm glad I did. Another Ghanaian author by name of Embi Baryeh. Her debut novel 'the most eligible bachelor' turned out to be a page turner.
The opening of the story from two strangers making out on valentines day after a first encounter got me skeptical but Empi certainly had a plan. The sex scene was beautifully written so I had to read on :-).
As the story unfolds, the book soon becomes a page turner and fixes a smile on your face. The characters are real as is the series of events that follow. It is also an easy read with creative vivid descriptions and the grammar is almost perfect. Ofcourse a happily ever after ending to crown the read. I've got a couple of western books lined up to read next but her second book changing faith promises to be better and its next in line on my African writers books to check out.

The spider king's daughter

Chibundu has done a fantastic job of walking the reader through the thoughts of the two key characters, taking a clever approach. It is creative and engaging and each chapter leaves you wanting more. Could have a better ending but for a debut novel from one so young, she has done a great job of it and Chibundu is one to look out for. An enjoyable read.

Definition Of A Miracle

Farida is a software engineer by profession and suffers with cerebral palsy, a childhood neurological condition  that affects movement, posture and coordination. The writer invites you into the home of Zaara, an 8 years old girl suffering with cerebral palsy in a country where the condition is misunderstood. She shares her daily experience after the family relocated from the UK and the quest to heal her disability via spiritual means.  Its easy to read, has lots of humor and it brings back memories of a typical day in a family from sibling rivalry, to unwelcome relatives, to parents pickering and community scandals. I could read a few chapters over and over again on a gloomy day and it'll surely bring back laughter. Highly Recommended.
