This book used to belong to my mother. I browsed our shelves and noticed it. She hasn't brought up the book in over a decade so I decided to take it. An excellent story!! True to life and uplifting. Nothing saccharine, I could visualize each dilemma and joy.

This will not be my only time reading Sharon Mitchell.

Kudos, more books, please!!!

It took me about 12 days to finish this book, no thanks to camp and nysc wahala.
This is my 3rd time visiting this book, and I still really enjoyed it. It's such a wholesome and worthy read...
