Bonus fact: No. I am not okay Paperback 352 pages Magpie, One World

After her husband’s unexpected death, everyone around Eve – her friends, her stifling Nigerian-British family, her toxic mother-in-law – is pushing her to move on. But Eve isn’t ready to face the future yet. No, she intends to take to her bed like a consumptive Victorian lady, ignoring her mother’s earnest prayers and her sister’s cajoling.

Instead, Eve begins looking back, combing through her memories in an attempt to understand where it all went wrong.

So begins this very unconventional love story.

 

‘A love story in retrospect, heartbreaking in its inevitablitiy but also shot through with moments of joy and humour.’ Stylist
