The Girl with the Louding Voice surprised me in the best way. I expected an unstoppable, larger-than-life heroine, but instead, I found something even more powerful—a young girl who discovers her voice despite a world that constantly tries to silence her.

Adunni's journey is compelling, heartbreaking, and ultimately hopeful as she finds confidence and refuses to accept the limitations placed on her. Along the way, I learned so much about Nigeria, its culture, and the stark class divide. A beautifully written, thought-provoking read.
