Honey and Spice by Bolu Babalola
In this captivating debut book by worldwide acclaimed author Bolu Babalola, a young Black British lady who has no interest in love finds herself unexpectedly involved in a phoney relationship with the man she warned her daughters about. Pepper-like heat with plantain-like sweetness. Together, they have the finest flavour.
Sharp-tongued Kiki Banjo just made a terrible error. She has made it her duty to prevent the women of the African-Caribbean Society at Whitewell University from falling into the mess of “situation-ships,” players, and heartbreak. She is an expert in relationship evasion and the host of the well-liked student radio program Brown Sugar.
But the entertainment is in danger when the Queen of the Unbothered kisses Malakai Korede, the man she just dubbed “The Wastemen of Whitewell” in front of every Blackwellian on campus.

They quickly become involved in a fictitious relationship in an effort to save their reputations and prospects. No matter how endearing he is or how electrifying their connection seems, Malakai won’t be the one to convince Kiki to give her heart, as she has never done before. But unexpectedly enjoyable study sessions and private, late-night conversations at classic diners compel Kiki to think outside of the box. Is she prepared to let anything deeper in?
Bolu writes well, and romance stories are unquestionably her thing. The reader will fall in love with the characters as she writes with style and wit. Her talent is evident and deserving of praise. Bolu is an excellent author. Honey & Spice is a deliciously tense and sparkling debut book that will leave you weak in the knees. It is also a brilliantly humorous book. This book was incredible. In addition to romance, it emphasizes the value of friendship. And how a solid friendship can support you in overcoming any obstacles. Amina and Kiki each provided spectacular support. Despite knowing it would be harsh, they were willing to express the obvious.
