A sweeping, evocative short story that spans decades, A Love Like This is a captivating tale of love and self-discovery from award-winning Nigerian author Abubakar Adam Ibrahim.

Yarima Lalo believes he has been murdered twice before. The cause? Love. To make sense of these vivid memories he cannot shake, he travels from Abuja to Kano with his new friend and love interest Aziza to meet an old woman who he might have known in a past life. She is skeptical at first - and hesitant to revisit painful memories of her own - but together, they dig deeper and deeper into the past, piecing together a shared history with ripple effects that could shape Lalo’s future.

I had to play back some parts to grasp the fullness of this mesmerizing story. I loved the fantastic past and present elements and the mystical, magical take on reincarnation. A MUST READ!

A Complex Tale ...

I wish I could have gone on an adventure with these two. Someone should turn this into a TV series. This book is the first season. Finding [the bad guy] could be the second season. As long as it’s set in West Africa with an African cast.

Loved it, too short!
