I truly loved Adunni and words cannot describe the hurt i felt towards her. But at the same time, i felt so inspired by her!! Despite being failed by most of the adults in her life and
( Also I just wanted to point out how i love how caring and protective Adunni is about her family, especially her younger brother and its so sweet how she still loves her father despite him selling her)
Overall, i give this book a whopping 5 stars, it really didnt feel like i was reading 312 pages!!

Reading this book was emotional, and sweet and I loved and rooted for Adunni through everything she went through. May her louding voice and the louding voice of the amazing author Abi Daré touch and inspire us all. This book has some sad and dark themes of child marriage, rape and indentured servitude and domestic violence. But it also tells the story of hope, of trials and tribulations, of mothers and their daughters, of education and family’s - both born and made - and of the desire to have better than you have and know better than you know. To learn what there is to learn. This book has touched me incredibly. I hope to write a book as good as this one some day. Abi Daré, you have inspired this fellow Nigerian woman to write.
This book has beautiful voice and an amazing and well crafted story. I wish Adunni well in her life. I know for certain that she has a louding voice. As I will have a window into her louding voice, forever preserved in history through this book. I hope the other girls in Nigeria and across the world will be able to have louding voices like Adunni.
I recommend this WHOLEHEARTEDLY.
