“There were no incisions on my daughter’s body, no lacerations, no scar, not one single lash mark from a previous life. Still they named her Rotimi, a name that implied she was an Abiku child who had come into the world intending to die as soon as she could. Rotimi— stay with me!”
Book Title:Stay with me by AyobamiAdebayo
This was the excerpt that I stumbled on that peaked my interest in this book and I knew I had to read it. I am not done reading but it’s been an emotional roller-coaster and I must say I love every part of it, also maybe because I know majority of the areas and places mentioned in the book since I graduated from Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife and I have lived in Ilesa town. Anyway, it’s a must read. 🥰
