I recently read TELL ME HOW TO BE, the debut novel from @hewritez, a beautifully-rendered story of the relationship between a son and mother, and the secrets they hold. It's a story that carries the weight of family, culture and the things we hide from ourselves and those we love

'Tell Me How To Be,' by Neel Patel has everything you could want in a novel: desire and heartbreak, longing and regret, reconciliation and acceptance, and to top it all off, all the right R&B references. @hewritez thank you for writing it!

"A dream of a novel...It’s deeply funny and full of feeling, by turns wickedly funny and emotional. I was smitten, and I’m so glad it’s a part of our canon." Brilliant #BryanWashington on @hewritez and TELL ME HOW TO BE 😍 🌈 cc: @Flatironbooks

One of my winter break reads: @hewritez’s new novel Tell Me How to Be - 10/10 would recommend. Akash and his mom, Renu, made me laugh AND cry. Their story of family, immigration, identity, and reconciliation is not one to be missed! (by the pool= even better)

Book 3 of 2022: OOOF I LOVED THIS. Laughed, cried, tabbed pgs for lines that resonated. I was rapt. Blocked out my whole family running around me to read. Just loved every minute of it- esp after the halfway mark. Highly recommend. Beautiful storytelling. @hewritez @Flatironbooks

Collecting my reads in a 🧵 for 2022, thanks to @Lyricalswordz and @AdrienneBranden for the inspiration. Book 1: Nigerian narrator’s youthful voice across time, from 15-24, when she finds herself, freedom, and feminism.

Ridiculously excited that @hewritez's novel Tell Me How to Be will be out in Jan with this stunner of a cover (Art: @stina_artist; Design: Ahlawat Gunjan). It's an incredible, unputdownable novel. If you don't believe me, see what @mraozing and @Lilly have to say!

I want to road trip with Renu & Akash in TELL ME HOW TO BE @hewritez
@Flatironbooks Lovably flawed characters each facing a life crisis & you just know (hope?) they’ll figure it out. Give to book groups that like complex relationship stories. And R&B music. @MacmillanLib #ewgc
