Blessing known as Obiefuna  in Igbo is the story of our main character as they explore their sexuality,go through grief heartbreak and more.

In this stellar debut, the author did a good job at telling Obiefuna’s story alongside his family and the people he loved along the course of his life. The writing is so good,flows so well. 

This book made me feel so many things from anger towards his dad,the use of queer people as political agenda. It was a relatable read for me which I thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend.
