 If you grew up in Trinidad and Tobago in the 90s, there was a local show on TV called "Westwood Park." The show depicted the twin island in a more glamourous way and it was in my opinion quite different to what you would expect a local show on TV to be like. This book The God of Good Looks gave me that "Westwood Park" vibes in 2023 (if that makes sense). Actually, I think this book should be a series because I want to know Obadiah's story. So Ms. Mc Ivor if you are reading this, I want a sequel.

I really connected with the book's main character Bianca Bridge in a way that is strange (because of course my experience is so far from what she went through). Something about her though connected with me. I think this author is one to watch because she really put a lot of thought into every character that draws you in from the very beginning. Eric Hugo was brilliantly written because I could not stand him. (I admit I was trying to look at our current ministers of government to figure out which one he could be lol).

I need some people to discuss this book with because I would like to know what they thought about OBADIAH.

The literary talent coming out of the Caribbean is exciting to me. This was well done. Highly recommend
