"There's something haunting but intriguing about this family" is exactly the feeling I want readers to enter with. Thank you so much for this mention @sashsolomon

@alexbracken @rosiesrambles A notable mention goes to @tochi5's debut 'This Kind of Trouble' a 5⭐️ read on @NetGalley thanks to @TinyRepBooks. Charting a Nigerian's family's experiences in and through colonialism, there's something haunting, but intriguing about this family. Releasing in August 2025 ✨ ✨
