Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Considered and thoughtful writing meets page-flicking drama . . . The vivid storytelling is a masterclass in exploring the impact a new person can uniquely have on each of us, based on our pain points, pasts, and passions. I felt like I had been listening in to years of these characters' therapy sessions; thanks to the richness of their inner lives as told throughout the chapters. This book is made for living next to SPF and sunglasses in a summertime basket bag."
--Giselle La Pompe Moore, author of Take It In "Sizzles off the page. I couldn't put it down."--Alice Clark Platts, author of The Cove "[The Sun Sets in Singapore] is going to make your summer sizzle! This page-turner is so unique and immersive, you won't be moving for a while!"--Buki Papillon, author of An Ordinary Wonder "A gripping portrayal of the highs and lows of living and working in a foreign country within a small community. [Fadipe] creates complex characters whose motives continually keep the reader in suspense, while also addressing wider issues of workplace dynamics, misogyny, and the discrimination Nigerians face around the world. A perfect recommendation for fans of Nikki May's Wahala (2022) and Lolá Ákínmádé Âkerström's In Every Mirror She's Black (2021)."--Booklist
