“Maame is a sweet coming-of-age story that follows Maddie, the daughter of Ghanaian immigrants, as she navigates family obligations, dating, loss, and career challenges.

I appreciated the tiny historical details she incorporated throughout the book as I learned about the daily and secret lives of Paddy and Freidl as they attempt to live within the constraints of their social circles. Having visited Winston Churchill's Cabinet War Rooms on a recent trip to England, I could easily see the reality...”
