Honey & Spice by Bolu Babalola

It's time!!!

Calling all the lovers of love. Lauryn and Dionne have exactly what you've been asking for. We read the full-length fiction debut of the Romconiseur herself, Ms. Bolu Babalola and it was EVERYTHING we could have ever asked for.

Sweet like plantain, hot like pepper. They taste the best when together...

Sharp-tongued (and secretly soft-hearted) Kiki Banjo has just made a huge mistake. As an expert in relationship-evasion and the host of the popular student radio show Brown Sugar, she’s made it her mission to make sure the women of the African-Caribbean Society at Whitewell University do not fall into the mess of “situationships”, players, and heartbreak. But when the Queen of the Unbothered kisses Malakai Korede, the guy she just publicly denounced as “The Wastemen of Whitewell,” in front of every Blackwellian on campus, she finds her show on the brink.

What follows? Fake dating, romantic gestures, charming dinners, perfect use of the thong song and the blossoming of something more. Happy Valentines Reading xx 

P.S. This episode was recorded in September 2022 so allow the outdated pop culture references lol
