Yinka, Where Is Your Huzband? by Lizzie Damilola Blackburn
5.0
The way I hugged this book and smiled after finishing the last page! I cringed, I laughed, I smiled, and my heart broke all while reading this book. It touches upon finding value and worth in yourself rather than from a relationship. That you shouldn’t change who you are to be valued and deemed worthy by others. But what I also loved was that at the age of 30 the main character comes to a point in her life where she is reconsidering her career and what it means to her, what does she love? Is she happy? It discusses generational differences and the stigma of counseling in the black community. Had me cheering to see Yinka and others attend.
The depiction of Nigerian culture was beautiful! I honestly googled ALOT to learn about the food dishes and clothing that was mentioned. Also, I absolutely adore Nana, by far my favorite character!!
