About this listen

 Growing up in the same small Ghanaian town, Selasi and Akorfa were more than just cousins, they were best friends. The girls shared everything – their dreams, their desires, their every secret. But as they enter their teens Selasi begins to become sullen and withdrawn, until Akorfa barely recognises the girl she once knew so well. Years go by before they cross paths again, and their lives look very different now. Although they are separated by continents, they have each found success in their careers: Akorfa works in international development in the US; Selasi is a restaurateur running the hottest spot in Accra. It takes a crisis to pull them back together, forcing both women to confront shocking secrets and childhood trauma that neither one has been willing to address. Now they must bridge the gulf between them to stop history repeating itself.©2023 Peace Adzo Medie (P)2023 Hachette Audio Coming of Age Family Life Fiction Friendship Genre Fiction World Literature

'I was hooked on Peace's writing! I found Nightbloom a blistering story, written with razor sharp precision.' (Huma Qureshi, author of Things We Do Not Tell the People We Love)

'Peace Adzo Medie is the doyenne of the emotional plot twist. Just when you're sure you've figured it out, she reminds you there are two sides to every story.' (Chibundu Onuzo, author of Sankofa)

I liked the story but hated the narration. it was delivered like someone was reading an essay with no emotions. the 2nd part narration was better and iam glad i stuck around bc the story was good.
