The Unwanted
In a Nigerian boarding highschool, things could get pretty hard for a 16 year old introverted-extrovert with a personality disorder. Mayowa Smith, fondly called Mayo, is in her final year in British International School, Lekki. What could possibly go wrong in the last year of secondary School? The answer is...a whole freaking lot! Mary Akinlesi, Mayo's childhood best friend that has always been loud, obnoxious, rude and extroverted is the only girl Mayo can relate with even though the difference between them is as clear as night and day. Stephanie Obi; an opinionated, snobbish, spoilt brat is the queen Bee and daughter of a multi-billionaire man who's part of the management team of the school. Nobody messes with her, not even the principal and if anyone crosses her path, Stephanie's beautiful smile could transform into a devilish sneer in only a matter of seconds. Things had always had a way; a routine. But then two new students join the school and Mayo is put in the same dorm room with the Queen-bitch herself. Betrayals come knocking, new friendships bloom...but most importantly, doom has arrived. In all its scary, mighty and hellish glory. It's coming for Mayo and it has a name. Stephanie.

Serendipity [BoyxBoy]
Ten different lives. Two boys. One night that'll bring them all together. Sixteen year old Nosa is okay with being a loner. He doesn't have social anxiety-- he's Catholic and his mum promised you can't love Jesus and have a disorder. He's just weird and he's not good at talking to people but that doesn't mean there's something wrong with him. It does mean that he and Irekan could never be friends. Irekan's parents moved them back to Nigeria to straighten him up-- literally. Being Nigerian and queer has never been easy but now he has to at least try to 'ungay' himself to keep his family together. And that means no falling in love with Nosa's stupid face. Two boys fall in love over novels, anime and rock music that's definitely going to get one of them killed. ❀Winner: 2022 Pride Awards Teen Fiction Category❀ ❀2nd Place Winner: 2022 Pride Awards❀ ❀Featured on the AmbassadorsNG reading list❀ ❀Featured on Stories Undiscovered August 2022 reading list❀ ❀Featured on AmbassadorsAF reading list❀ __Highest Rankings__ #1 wattpadnigeria (3/08/2022) #1 Africanbook (8/05/2022) #1 Africanlgbt (8/05/2022) #5 Blackboys (12/05/2022) #2 Nigerianbook (15/07/2022) #13 Young Adult Fiction (23/06/2024) **This is a bl and it features multiple queer characters.
