Think Jenny Hans THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY but with West African characters and a dash of Netflix NEVER HAVE I EVER.

Oze Ighodalo always was the sheltered child being the only female among three boys. She chose boarding school on school days and indoors during holidays because she hated the overly watchful eyes of her brothers. 

This holiday however, all of the Ighodalo boys had graduated which meant an opportunity to do everything she always wanted, especially get close to her long time crush and best friends step brother at the prestigious summer school. 

But there's a new boy in town and sooner than expected there are more boy drama in her life than any of her brothers would approve of, coupled with constant letters from a secret admirer who promises to reveal himself at the end of August.

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.
