Welcome to Litsy!

Jagua traveled to Lagos in her youth to make it in the big city. When we meet her in her 40s things haven‘t gone as planned, she‘s meeting men at Tropicana in exchange for many and at the same time she has a relationship with a 20 yr younger man. And then things take a turn.

And that cover, it‘s eye catching

A little late for #SundayBuddyRead …

I‘ve not read Stewart before, but her way of introducing twists is astounding! I was suspicious of a few elements introduced early on, and while my suspicions were later proven correct, the whole journey to the revelations - and more! - was very riveting. Stewart‘s writing also has this slow, mysterious vibe, setting up for something dark and sinister. Great read! #192025 #1961
