    Content: Kiki Banjo is an expert in relationship-evasion. In fact, she has made it her mission to protect the women of Whitewell University from the dangers of players and heartbreak, supplying advice, tips and essentials to paying men no mind on her student radio show, Brown Sugar. And then Kiki meets distressingly handsome newcomer Malakai Korede, who threatens to tear apart the community of women she's fought so hard to protect. Kiki publicly declares Malakai the 'Wasteman of Whitewell' on Brown Sugar and brings a stop to her girls chasing his attentions. But when she and Malakai suddenly find themselves shackled into a fake relationship to salvage their respective reputations and save their academic futures, she is in danger of falling for the very wasteman she warned her sisters about. With her heart compromised and defences weakened, Kiki has to learn to open herself up to the perils of love... and face up to a past that forced her to close down in the first place.

Malakai is an aspiring filmmaker whose undeniable talents (and stunning good looks) hardly make up for being cocky and annoying, but she eventually proposes the two of them pretend to pair up romantically as well, their fake relationship serving as fodder for both of their professional projects. Suffused with music and pop culture references (thanks in large part to Kiki’s vast musical knowledge and her talent for puns), their repartee is quick and clever, with the verbal sparring heightening their physical attraction and making the sexy and effervescent story emotionally intimate and hilarious in turn. Babalola’s expert handling of the messy vulnerability and joyful exuberance of young love makes this a winner."

Loner Kikiola Kiki Banjo is perfectly content with her Switzerland-esque social status at Whitewell College. Uninterested in making any political or social waves, Kiki dedicates all her energy to Brown Sugar, her show on the college radio station. Her college, called Blackwell by the school's Black caucus, is home to a number of cliques and queen bees, but Kiki prefers to stay behind the mic when dealing with any drama between Blackwellian babes and the guys she dubs Wastemen (They waste our time. Waste our energy). Armed with a sharp tongue and her producer/best friend, Aminah, Kiki hopes the show will land her a spot at New York University's elite summer pop media program, but she needs a community component to really seal the deal. Enter hot transfer Malakai Korede, a film student and fresh manna from heaven. Despite his recent arrival, his more-than-good looks and charisma have already pitted the independent Blackwell women against each other, and even Kiki finds it difficult to withstand his effortless charm. After an impromptu make-out session spurs their unexpected friendship, Kiki and Malakai decide to combine forces and fake date to add to the credibility of Brown Sugar and provide audio for his romance documentary. Suddenly, the walls Kiki built around herself come tumbling down as her relationship with Malakai turns them into local celebrities, and she must come to terms with what it means to step out from the recording booth and actually be seen. Babalola's debut novel is lyrical and sincere, her prose rhythmic: My smile had had enough of being trapped and spilled out, wide and brazen and messy, dripping everywhere. It soaked through my clothes and into my skin. Kiki is the epitome of cool,her dialogue oozes with confidence, and her biting wit rolls off her tongue with ease--leaving readers wishing they could play her clever disses on repeat like their favorite song. Smooth, sophisticated, and sexy. COPYRIGHT(2022) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Her first novel is the wonderfully indulgent long-form romance her readers have been waiting for. Kiki Banjo is known on the Whitewell University campus for her sharp tongue, her female-empowering student radio show, Brown Sugar, and her aversion to campus dating. So when she kisses Malakai Korede, the boy she named the Wasteman of Whitewell, in front of the whole Blackwellian student body, her loyal listeners feel betrayed. A fake relationship may be the thing to save their reputations and their futures, as long as they don't allow their feelings to get in the way. Babalola identifies what it truly means to be seen, tapping into the big and small things that can cement or destroy relationships.

    Content: Kiki Banjo kommentiert das Geschehen am Whitewell-College lieber in ihrer Radioshow Brown Sugar, als selbst daran teilzunehmen. Sie verbringt ihre Zeit stattdessen mit dem Aufbau ihrer Karriere als Multimedia-Journalistin und ihrer besten und einzigen Freundin Aminah. Dem Dating hat sie abgeschworen - aus guten Gründen. Bis der neue Student Malakai Korede ans College kommt und Kikis sorgsam aufgebaute Mauern ins Wanken geraten . Der erste Roman von Bestseller-Autorin Bolu Babalola ist mehr als die Geschichte einer College-Liebe: Er ist eine Ode an die Freundschaft, an den Zusammenhalt der Schwarzen Community und kommentiert in scharfzüngigen Dialogen aktuelle gesellschaftspolitische Themen - erzählt von einer jungen Schwarzen Protagonistin, die Beziehungen hinterfragt und neu definiert.

    Content: "Ein subversives Korrektiv für die westliche Vorstellung davon, wer in der Liebe den Ton angibt." NEW YORK TIMES Bolu Babalola hat die schönsten Liebesgeschichten der Mythologie mit unglaublicher Frische und Lebendigkeit neu erzählt. Sie konzentriert sich auf die magischen Volksmärchen Westafrikas und erfindet auch griechische Mythen, alte Legenden aus dem Nahen Osten und Geschichten aus Ländern neu, die in unserer Welt nicht mehr existieren. Die Frauen in ihren Love Stories sind kämpferische Verfechterinnen ihrer Leidenschaft, verlieren aber nie den Blick darauf, dass die wichtigste Liebe von allen die Selbstliebe ist. Während in der Mythologie Frauen oft die Opfer männlicher Begierde sind, geben bei Bolu Babalola immer die Frauen den Ton an und nehmen ihr Schicksal selbst in die Hand. In all deinen Farben wechselt aufregend Perspektiven, Kontinente und Stile, durchschreitet Grenzen von Zeit und Raum - und feiert die Romantik in all ihren Formen.
    Note: Bolu Babalola ist eine britisch-nigerianische Frau mit einem Bachelor in Rechtswissenschaften und einem Master in Amerikanischer Politik und Geschichte. Als Liebhaberin der Liebe und selbsternannte "Romcomaisseurin" schreibt sie Geschichten von starken Frauen, die kühn lieben und geliebt werden. Sie glaubt fest daran, dass Frauen sowohl "die Schöne" als auch "das Biest" sind. Sie twittert viel zu viel @BeeBabs.
