Lizzie wrote this book beautifully. She challenges the thought that women need to be married before they are 30 and if they aren't they are spinsters. Yinka is 31 and single. She is having a bad year. Starting with her little sister gets married and is pregnant before her. She's been let go from her job instead of getting a promotion that she has been working hard for. She runs into her ex-fiancé and his new girlfriend. The topper is her cousin is getting married and her mother and aunties want her to bring a boyfriend. I love Yinka's friends and family. The way Nina and Yinka hang out together and have no problem speaking their truths. I enjoyed this book!

This isn’t an option in the content warnings for some reason, but this book discusses colorism at length.
