Maame is a debut novel set in London.
A coming of age story where you will be rooting for this girl from the start.
Maame (Madeline) takes care of her father who has Parkinson’s for much of the year while her mother is away in Ghana.
She is quite reclusive and awkward around people, has just two gal pals that she doesn’t see often. Googles all her questions about life, she’s awkward and sad a lot of the time. has a very overbearing mother.. even from afar!
I loved Maame, I laughed quite a bit and also felt so bad for her at times as she comes into her own and navigates relationships.
Good ending.
Thank you to Netgalley and St.Martin’s Press for the Arc!
