Hey guys, today is my first ever book review and I will be talking about the much talked about book; On Becoming by Toke Makinwa. Though dubbed as an autobiography about her life, it's more of an indepth expose about her 14 year relationship to her ex-husband Maje.

The book reveals some shocking truths and keeps the reader engaged for the majority of it's chapter. I give my views on the book but also talk you through the lessons I learnt from it.

You can get your hands on a copy of the book here:

The next book i will be reviewing is Loveology by John Mark Comer

Feel free to get it in advance and stay tuned to my review.
