📚 THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

This book has been on my TBR 📖✨ for a long time now( P.S I put my self on restrictions shh 🤫I have to finish all the book on my TBR before this year runs out😂😩). Anyway back to the book.

THE SECRET LIVES OF BABA SEGI'S WIVES is a book about a polygamous family comprising of 4 wives namely IYA SEGI,IYA TOPE AND IYA FEMI and BOLANLE THE GRADUATE and 7 children( I found Akin the most interesting).

The book tackles sensitive themes like rape, abuse, cheating, hatred and others in such a way it didn't make me cringe.

3 things I loved about this book:

1. I loved that the author gave us a backstory of each character. It made each character come to life and very real and it is also told from different POVS so I was able to understand why each character acted the way they acted.

2. I loved the fact that the book focused on only baba segi's household

3. I loved the way that Bolanle didn't stoop to the other wives level. The fact remains EDUCATION WILL CHANGE THE WAY YOU LOOK AT THE WORLD

BABA SEGI I FEEL SAD FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU TOOK CARE OF PEOPLE YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF 😪

📚RATINGS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐( 4 stars)

BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: REMEMBER ME TOMORROW

📖 BOOK TITLE: REMEMBER ME TOMORROW 📖AUTHOR: FARAH HERON 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #127thBookOf2024 Yes, this book is a little bonkers. This is a very unconventional love story, and you have to really get at it to grasp the story between Jay and Aleeza. You know I love everything time travel/parallel universe-related, and with each fiction book I read about this topic, my mind is blown away every single time. Yes, there's more mystery elements than the rom-com because how can Aleeza be in love with Jay, who is not even in her timeline, talk about a guy who is unavailable? I loved how put together this book was, how the mystery elements worked together; there was no point in this book that was left to assumptions; everything was explained well without being boring and overly descriptive. Overall, I really enjoyed this story, and definitely this will not be my last Farah Heron's book. 📖RATINGS: 4 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 📖QUOTES: ♤ Time isn’t linear. There are an infin...

THE REUNION BY KAYLA OLSON

📖 BOOK TITLE: THE REUNION 📖AUTHOR: KAYLA OLSON 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #155thBookof2024 I really wanted to love this; I mean, look at this stunning cover, but it is what it is, and I didn't love it 😩. It was like the author wanted to shove the love interest down my throat 😂😂. One thing this love story between Liv and Ransom did was make me cringe. I even lowkey hated the MMC's name 😩😑. The chemistry was not there, and it just felt as if Liv didn't have any other option than to date Ransom. Boy told you he wanted space; he didn't talk to you, and after so many years, he waltzed back into your life like he never left. The synopsis made it feel like Ransom was the reason Liv went into isolation 😑😑. Liv- I love your personality and your charisma, but your love story with Ransom was one I so detested 🙁. 📖 RATINGS : 2 STARS ⭐⭐ 📖🌸 READ IF YOU LIKE: 🌸 She has always loved him 🌸 Friends to strangers to lovers 🌸 Second chance romance 🌸 Hollywoo...
