𝗠𝗔𝗔𝗠𝗘 is a such gorgeous debut. This beautifully written coming-of-age story revolves around Maddie, a 25-year-old Ghanaian woman living in London who's trying to navigate taking care of her father, who has Parkinson's, finding love, making friends and how to succeed professionally. Jessica George has created such a memorable and realistic character in Maddie, and her journey to becoming Maame (woman in Twi) is emotional and powerful.

I loved listening to this story and highly recommend the audiobook - the narration is just perfection.

4.5 stars

Thanks to St. Martin's Press and libro.fm for the copies to review.
