Stay With Me by Ayobami Adebayo


This is a raw and sensitive exploration of the stresses that can be put on a relationship over the years. Yejide and Akin experience milestones and traumas, straining their once-strong marriage in new ways. Set in Nigeria, the details of their everyday life, and the political landscape, add a fascinating layer to the devastatingly familiar humanity felt in their disappointments and heartaches. Ayobami Adebayo has written a beautiful, heartfelt novel.
