Sister of Mine by Marie-Claire Amuah | A Ghanaian British Perspective on Identity and Family I went into Sister of Mine thinking I was getting a fairly straightforward story about family. It’s not that. It’s much more layered, and sits in that slightly uncomfortable space of identity, belo…

Just finished Sister of Mine and it hit in a very specific way.
As a Ghanaian British reader, the Accra scenes felt real. The heat, the chaos, that feeling of familiarity and distance at the same time.
4.5 stars.

Belly's makeup in season three of "The Summer I Turned Pretty" tells its own story. "We tested looks until we landed on something that felt right for Belly's age and storyline — a little more polish, but it still feels soft and natural," says series makeup artist Tara Sall.

Cover of Fantasicland by Mike Bockoven. Title in white text, author in red. Image is a backlit ferris wheel. The image combined with the colors give it an eerie feeling

Cover of Never Whistle at Night, an Indigenous Dark Fiction Anthology. Black background. Greenery frames the cover with yellow eyes peering out near the bottom. It is very chaotic and coloful visually. Flowers with eyes as the middle, a large red and black snake framing the bottom half and a riot of colorful but ordinary flowers.

Current reads: Never Whistle at Night (physical copy) and Fantasicland (audiobook)

Both are really engaging so far and I think part of the reason I have had a hard time going back to sleep is that FantasticLand has me intrigued.

Reading both as part of #popsugar 2025 reading challenge
