Yinka, Where is Your Huzband? is a fun light hearted read that will be perfect to enjoy sitting by the beach or in your garden with a glass of wine. There are a multitude of reviews which compare the book to a Nigerian Bridget Jones's Diary and I can totally see the similarity. The characters are vibrant and it was great to see the snippets of traditional Nigerian culture mixed with everyday London life. For me it felt a little bit like read a YA novel rather than a book about someone in their thirties, so while I did enjoy it I didn't love it as much as I was expecting to.

Nevertheless I'd definitely recommend it for someone looking for an enjoyable easy summer read.
