My favourite romance book of all time. For me, this book reinforced how important represention and black literature is. It was amazing understanding all the references and how the music I grew up with was used to make me feel how the characters felt. I realised how often I do not understand references in literature written by white people and how much I have been missing. This is an unforgettable book for me and I cannot wait to read more by Bolu Babalola.
