About this listen

Candice Brathwaite's much-anticipated second book about all the things she wishes she'd been told when she was young and needed guidance.

I Am Not Your Baby Mother was a landmark publication in 2020. A thought-provoking, urgent and inspirational guide to life as a Black British mum, it was an important call-to-arms allowing mothers to take control and scrap the parenting rulebook to do it their own way. It was a Sunday Times top-five best seller.

Sista Sister is a compilation of essays about all the things Candice wishes someone had talked to her about when she was a young Black girl growing up in London. From family and money to Black hair and fashion, as well as sex and friendships between people of different races, this is a fascinating listen that will have another profound impact on conversations about Black Lives Matter.

Written in Candice's trademark straight-talking, warm and funny style, it will delight her fans, old and new.

This is a thought provoking book that one can find parallels in many areas of society and different cultures. As with a lot of auto-biographical style books or life lessons books it can be a little self indulgent in places and can come across slightly as preaching. However this is a thought provoking books and an honest view internal and external facing, I like the fact Candice is very frank & open with the mistakes she has made that in turn form part of the lessons learnt but also contributed to her own views and issues.

Honest, thought provoking,self indulgent in places
