The Marriage Monitoring Aunties' Association centers Sade, a 50 year old Nigerian woman who has yet to be married and have children. These two things in her community and family outdo any accomplishments that she may have such as completing college and being a super dope project manager. Due to a medical procedure and her biological time clock she realizes that she may have to find a new way to approach the Aunties.
I enjoyed this book and I loved that it centered around a middle aged woman. I also loved learning about Nigerian culture, customs and traditions. I wished that the book focused more on the aunties and I also wished there was more of a solution or growth when it came to Sade sooner.
