Love Is Beautiful When In Bloom is a collection of seven short stories that centre and focus on Love. The stories are refreshing and have a lightness to them that would make you just sit and smile. I'm proud of Nigerian Female authors who are doing extraordinarily well and I'll always highlight them in anyway I can. Since it's Short stories September, I decided to read two stories from this collection and I hope you enjoy it. You can get the book from the author's page on Instagram @laratkareem or @rovinheights, @pagebookstore and @bookpeddlerng all on Instagram. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/readsrecsandreviews/message

Nigeria is home to a lot of popular authors known worldwide who have become household names. We always hear about these household names but have you heard of others who aren't household names but who have actually broken into these writing streets and shown themselves worth so much. These are authors in Nigeria that I think their names should be on everyone's lips. Enjoy! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/readsrecsandreviews/message
