Book of the Month: MARCH

Dear FictionAddicts,

It’s March! The rains have started and the weather is much cooler, thank goodness. I would not have survived another day of the drastic heatwave. February could easily pass for the hottest month this year asides from being the month of love. The month of love has come and gone but we should not stop showing love. Let’s give a little more love everyday.

Now I’m sure you all had the best of time with Collen Hoover’s It Ends With Us last February. One of our ardent readers wrote in on Instagram a couple of days after I posted the book of month for February saying she finished it already and it was lovely.

This got me thinking, more books every month. FictionAddicts, February 2018 is the last time we will ever read one book. I promise. Fiction addicts honor,just as in Scout’s honor.

This month we will read two books:



Emily Giffin’s Heart of the Matter: This psychological fiction follows the lives of two different women. Tessa Russo is the mother of two young children and wife of a renowned pediatric surgeon. Despite her own mother’s warnings, Tessa has recently given up her career to focus on her family and the pursuit of domestic happiness. From the outside she seems destined to live a charmed life.
Valerie Anderson is an attorney and single mother to six-year old Charlie – a boy who has never known his father. After too many disappointments, she has given u on romance – and even friendships – believing that it is always safer not to expect too much.
Although both women live in the same Boston suburb, the two have relatively little in common aside from a fierce love for their children. But one night a tragic accident causes their lives to converge in ways no one could have imagined.

Single Girl’s To-Do List, Lindsey Kelk:  Rachel Summers is a twenty-something make-up artist  whose life is pretty much going according to plan. She has a job she loves, lovely long-term boy friend, a great flat in North London and some fabulous friends. The next phase of her master plan is to buy a house, have a baby, move to a bigger house, have another baby. Simple. Well her plans are in top gear until her boyfriend Simon suddenly decides that they should take a break. Rachel is convinced it is just a three year itch but, four weeks later, they’re living under the same roof and sleeping in separate bedrooms. They eventually break up and Rachel’s best friends Emile and Matthew step in for an intervention. As they try to convince her to move on , they come up with the ultimate break up cure The Single Girl’s To-Do List. A list of all the things Rachel should see and do to take her mind off Simon and hopefully find true love. But nothing could have prepared these three friends for all the adventures that are about to unfold as the to do list takes them around London.

That’s all folks, enjoy. Remember




Much Love,

BOOK OF THE MONTH : MARCH, 2021

Dear FictionAddicts, 2021 is already 2 months and 10 days old. I’m not going to give a new year speech, the year is already old and 2020 was a …..well, it was a vibe, mood, cruise, a corona virus year and a forced vacation all wrapped up in one. It’s March and the weather is not friendly at all with the sun scorching everything in its path . Please drink lots of water, stay hydrated, wear a mask and stay safe. This March we will read The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware and The Other Woman by Sandie Jones   The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware When Rowan Caine stumbles upon the ad, she was looking for something else completely. But it seemed too good an opportunity to pass on. It was a live-in nanny post, with a very generous salary. When she arrives at Heatherbrae House, Rowan is smitten by the luxurious “smart” home fitted with every modern convenience imaginable, by the beautiful Scottish Highlands and by this picture-perfect family. Her employer Sandra Elincour...

Dear Fiction Addicts, Welcome to July! The first half of the year is gone and if we haven’t hit our targets yet, we still have time to put in effort and set the ball in motion. Take that first step and keep moving. Remember to work smart and not hard. June had its share of woes and sadness. The killings in Jos, Plateau State and the petrol tanker explosion on Micheal Otedola Bridge, along Lagos Ibadan Expressway, Lagos that claimed the lives of so many Nigerians in the last month is just very sad. Our prayers are with those who lost loved ones in these ugly incidents. This month we will read An American Marriage by Tayari Jones and The Girl On The Train by Paula Hawkins. The Girl On the Train was a special request by one of our readers -@a_jokeade. An American Marriage by Tayari Jones Newlyweds Celestial and Roy are the embodiment of both the American Dream and the New South. He is a young executive, and she is an artist on the brink of an exciting caree...
