Wow, what a way to end the duology! I was a bit skeptical going into this because, let’s be honest, the second book in a duology often doesn’t live up to the first. But Ana Mma completely blew me away!
This second part showcases Agozie’s growth and the struggles she faced to rebuild herself. It was so satisfying to see her evolve and truly come into her own.
And Indigo—my man! He was totally finished for Agozie. If she asked for his eyes, I’m pretty sure he would have given them to her without hesitation. His love for her is everything.
Hafsa’s character also played an important role with the tough love and push she gave Agozie. I loved the way her character was written, especially how she helped Agozie see things from a different perspective.
One of my favorite parts was how Rosemary portrayed Agozie’s children, especially Otito’s reaction—it felt so real and beautiful. I loved seeing the dynamic between them and how it added so much depth to the story.
And Chinelo—what can I say? I wouldn’t mind seeing her get her own book, honestly! She definitely deserves her own story.
This is a 5-star read for me, and I highly recommend it. If you haven’t pre-ordered yet, do yourself a favor and run to do so now!
A huge thanks to the author for this beautiful ARC!

See ehn... when I say a book dragged me in, suffocated me and wouldn't let me go, this is the one.
I thought everything was going to be rosy for Agozie with Ndiego in the picture but no... that useless, good for nothing husband of hers, Nonso just had to come back and ruin everything! Like he always does! Anumpama like him.. tcheww
This book touched on the weight of a mother on her first child.. I saw through Ngozi.. she wasn't directly carrying the weight of her mother and siblings but she was still carrying it. In a world where that is common as a "first born daughter/child".
It also touched on how a mother is expected to pause her whole life and dreams just for her children.
This story explores themes of hardship, fight for love, survival, peace, hope and dreams
I love how Ndiego just wanted her to find herself. In a world where It is said that a woman who is scorned lives for her children and forgets herself, focuses in her children alone, their dreams become hers and that's okay... Well, this book contradicts that cuz no matter one's age or situation, its okay to still dream!
I love the fact that Hafsa spearheaded it too. The typical portrayal of "women supporting women "
Nothing prepared me for the discovery of who Simon really is! What?!! Never did I imagine that's who he is! Damn!!
Well.. Good riddance to bad rubbish! He was such a torn in her flesh!
I love the representation of adult love and marriage, too. It's never too late to find love, be loved, and accept an old lover. Ndiego's love towards Chiagozie is a representation of "loud and unapologetic " that man loves her with everything he owns, and I mean everything!
They both blocked the noise of "you're disgracing your children, what about your husband, you're still married" tcheww Married my foot!
I thoroughly enjoyed how they rekindled their love.. it was wholesome! Through the good, bad, and ugly, Ndiego never stopped to prove his love, and Chiagozie never held back either
All in all, this is a must-read for everyone who has been told to halt their life to please others or present themselves a certain way just so that it stops people from talking
Pursue that dream, accept that love, leave where you're not wanted, and find yourself again.

What a way to close a story👏👏👏👏
Going into this, I was honestly a bit unsure because sequels do not always live up to the first book, but this completely exceeded my expectations. Everything felt deeper, more intense, and more emotionally layered.
Agozie’s journey in this book really stood out to me. You can clearly see her growth, not just on the surface, but in the way she begins to understand herself, question everything she has been taught, and slowly rebuild her life on her own terms. Watching her evolve from who she was into who she becomes was both satisfying and emotional. It did not feel rushed or unrealistic. It felt earned.
And Indigo… I do not even know where to start. The way he loves Agozie is so steady and intentional. There is no confusion, no games, just a man who is completely sure of how he feels. That kind of love felt rare and refreshing to read, especially in contrast to everything Agozie had experienced before. His presence added both warmth and depth to the story.
I also really appreciated characters like Hafsa, who brought that tough love energy. She was not always soft, but she was necessary. She challenged Agozie and pushed her to see things differently, and that added another layer to the story.
And Chinelo… I am not even joking, I would absolutely read a whole book about her 😭 She has such a strong presence, and every time she appears, you feel it. She is bold, sharp, and unforgettable.
One thing this book does so well is tension. The emotional tension, the relationship dynamics, the societal pressure… everything keeps building in a way that keeps you fully engaged. It is not just about romance, it is about identity, survival, and choosing yourself even when it is difficult.
The message really stayed with me. It is a reminder that no matter what society tries to shape you into, you still have the power to rewrite your own story. Agozie’s journey is proof of that, and it made the entire story feel even more powerful.
Rosemary Okafor truly knows how to write characters that feel alive and stories that pull you in emotionally. At this point, I trust her storytelling completely. She does not miss.

Ana mma, the second book and finale of the Time and Ash duology, beautifully continues Indigo and Agozie’s story while giving readers a satisfying and beautiful conclusion.
What I loved most about this book was Agozie’s journey. After having her dreams crushed at such a young age because of her father’s decision to force her into marriage, it was beautiful seeing her gradually find herself again. Watching her rediscover her strength and finally achieve some of the dreams she once thought were impossible was truly inspiring.
I also loved the role Hafsa played in her life. Even when Agozie became reluctant and wanted to give up on herself, Hafsa kept pushing her, encouraging her, and doing everything possible to make sure she didn’t abandon her dreams completely. Their dynamic added so much depth to the story.
Another thing this book portrayed so well was the sacrifices mothers make for their children. There were moments where Agozie was willing to let go of her own happiness and dreams just for the sake of her children, and honestly, it was emotional to read. It really highlights how deeply mothers can give up parts of themselves while trying to care for their families.
And Simon… that man frustrated me throughout the story 😭. He was genuinely wicked, so I was very satisfied that he finally got what he deserved in the end.
Chinelo was another interesting character for me. Her POV made the story more entertaining and engaging, but at the same time, she annoyed me so much because she talked too much and often said things she shouldn’t have 😭. Still, I eventually understood her character better as the story progressed.
One thing I truly appreciate about Rosemary Okafor’s writing is consistency. Sometimes in a series or duology, the first book is amazing and the second loses momentum, but that was not the case here at all. Both Indigo and Ana mma were equally compelling, emotional, and beautifully written.
The ending was everything I hoped for. Seeing Indigo and Agozie finally end up together after everything they went through made the conclusion feel complete and satisfying ❤️.

Finishing this duology feels like saying goodbye to people I’ve known for years. What a journey. Rosemary Okafor truly knows how to bring a duology to a powerful close.
Agozie’s growth stands out as one of the most beautifully written arcs in the story. Her evolution is not rushed or surface-level,it is intentional, steady, and deeply earned. Watching her begin to question everything she was raised to believe and slowly rebuild her life on her own terms made her journey incredibly moving.
Hafsa is one of those characters who quietly anchors the story. Her consistency, support, and refusal to let Agozie give up on herself added so much emotional strength to the narrative. She is the kind of presence that feels necessary in a story like this.
Chinelo remains unforgettable every time she appears. Her POV is bold, sharp, and commanding, and she brings a distinct energy to the story. Her book within the book about Ndiego and Agozie was especially intriguing and something I would genuinely love to read in full.🤣
For Simon, I have no words for him 🙄, and Otito adds both chaos and emotional tension that could have led to worse outcome but I totally love how Ndiego cleared him.
One of the strongest themes in this finale is the quiet burden carried by women, especially first-born daughters and mothers,the expectation to sacrifice their own lives while holding everyone else together. This emotional thread grounds the story in reality and makes it deeply relatable.
Ndiego’s love is central to the emotional resolution. It is not just romantic, but intentional and restorative. He doesn’t only love Agozie as she is,he encourages her to rediscover herself beyond duty, pain, and expectation. Despite everything he has been shaped by, his love remains steady, deliberate, and unwavering.
Ana MMA is a powerful conclusion to a deeply emotional duology. Truly unforgettable.

Àná Mmā: The Finale was everything I wanted from a conclusion and somehow even more devastating than the first book.
What stayed with me most throughout this story was Ndiego’s love for Agozie. No matter how much power changed him, no matter how ruthless or hardened he became, there was always a part of him that yearned for her completely. Beneath the feared man politics and ambition created was still the boy who once loved her with his whole heart, and that emotional conflict made his character incredibly compelling to read.
Agozie’s journey also stood out to me deeply. Watching her choose herself in a society that expects women to endure suffering quietly felt powerful and necessary. The book handled themes of womanhood, survival, sacrifice, and identity with so much care.
I also loved how the story never separated romance from the political realities surrounding the characters. The corruption, manipulation, greed, and struggle for power constantly shaped their lives and relationships, making everything feel layered and emotionally heavy.
The emotional intensity of this book was incredible. Every reunion, argument, and quiet moment carried years of longing, regret, love, and history behind it. You could feel how deeply these characters had changed while still holding onto parts of who they once were.
By the end of the duology, I genuinely struggled to pick up another book because nothing felt like it could compare to the emotional experience this story gave me. I fell into a reading slump trying to hold onto the feeling these books left behind, and honestly, that says everything about how much this story affected me.
A beautifully written and emotionally consuming conclusion to a truly unforgettable duology

ARC Review ✨
This is exactly what I’m talking about! What a beautiful way to conclude such a magnificent story. I’ll admit, I was a bit apprehensive at the start. I kept wondering if this sequel could truly live up to the brilliance of the first book. But it didn’t just meet my expectations; it exceeded them. Permit me to say Damn, but damnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! Rosemary Okafor dey write Abeg!
Watching Agozie’s evolution was the highlight for me. She went from being a woman who felt like a passenger in her own life, someone who constantly shrinks to fit into spaces that didn't deserve her, to a woman who finally took the wheel and owned her space. I loved how the role Hafsa played was instrumental to the growth. It was so unexpected and I think that’s what I loved about it. Indigo’s women supporting each other 😂😂
Speaking of Indigo 🙈😍 My sweet, sweet Indigo. Can we give this man an award already? He is officially the most intentional MMC I have ever read. He didn’t for once give up on Agozie. He taught me that true love isn't all about possession or obsession; it’s about having the heart to step back just so the person you love can finally choose themselves.
Am I qualified to call myself an obsessed lover of Indigo and Ana Mma if I don’t talk about Chinelo? Our MVP of comic relief. I love this girl to my bones! Honestly, she’s too iconic to be a side character. I’m already manifesting a spin-off where she gets her own spotlight. Do I get an Amen? 🌚
Overall, the pacing was effortless, and the execution was seamless. I wouldn’t change a single word. Rosemary Okafor, please take your flowers. Actually, forget the bouquet, you’ve earned the entire garden 🪴🌹

Omo… this duology stressed me, healed me and swallowed me whole 😭🤚🏽
I really thought Agozie was finally going to find peace once Ndiego came back into her life but that useless man Simon just had to reappear and ruin everything like the thorn in flesh that he is 😒. And the revelation about who he truly was?? Rosemary, you’ll pay for my therapy bills because WHAT?!!
One thing this story did so well was explore the weight women, especially first born daughters and mothers, carry quietly. The expectation to pause your life, dreams and happiness just because people are depending on you.
And that’s why I loved Ndiego so much 😭. That man wanted Agozie to FIND HERSELF again. Not just exist for her children or society. His love for her was loud, intentional and unapologetic. Even after everything life and politics turned him into, there was still a part of him that loved her completely 🥹.
I also loved Agozie’s growth so much. Watching Chiagoziem go from an uneducated village girl to this sophisticated designer woman trying to reclaim herself?? Beautiful.
And please 😭 I loved Chinelo’s POV too. As for Otito… I loved the way Ndiego put him in his place 😹🤚🏽
The emotions in this book were intense 😭. The love, longing, sacrifice, regret, hope… everything felt so real. And please, Hafsa the woman that you are?? Women supporting women >>>>
Honestly, this story is for anyone who has ever been made to feel like they should stop living for themselves just to please society.
Pursue that dream.
Accept that love.
Find yourself again.
Rosemary Okafor really created something beautiful with this duology 🤍.

Ana Mma is a beautiful ending to the duology.
In the second book, we read about Agozie's growth and her coming off from an abusive marriage with Simon and learning to choose herself over guilt trip and the voices of people constantly telling her what to do and stand up for her self. I really loved this for her, I've been waiting to see that happen💯😁.
Indigo- an example of love personified , he was willing to go over and beyond for Agozie and we see that happen time and time again. I liked that he was also willing to step back and help her on the sidelines watching her gain control and confidence in who she was. I liked the way he loved her. Ha!, the love was too much😊😊.
I also like Hafsa's contribution to Agozie's growth and the push she gave her to become something more. That was genuinely rooting for someone.
One of the highlights for me in the entire duology is Chinelo's POV. It gave more insight to the entire book and the needed spice as well. I wouldn't mind getting her own story.
As for Simon, he got what he deserved and how I wish he got more, and Otito, I really don't know what else he expected his mother to do, probably keep wallowing in poverty?, I wonder🤷. (I especially liked when Indigo cleared him, he knew it wasn't all jokes anymore😂).
Thank you Rosemary for this beautiful ARC.
This book is a must read! 👍.

Indeed the finale.
When a writer knows how well to take her readers to different levels of lovable tension.
Rosemary again has done what she knows how best to. The varying levels of tension between the different characters in this book takes writing to a different level.
Most importantly is the salient message this book preaches: don't let the society take you away from you. Despite all society turned her to be, she rose up from the dust and ashes and reclaimed herself. Not just in the society but even in a better life and future for herself and also her live life. Agozie accepted everything society pushed her way to be the "wife and sister"society expected of her. But when pushed against the wall with nothing to do, she re-wrote her story.
Thank you Rosemary.

I totally enjoyed this book. It was a captivating blend of romance and political intrigue, richly layered with compelling plots that grips the reader until the final page.
