Tomi Obaro, DELE WEDS DESTINY: A Novel

Guest host Alisha Fernandez Miranda interviews BuzzFeed News editor Tomi Obaro about Dele Weds Destiny, a sensational debut novel about three beautifully complex Nigerian women who meet in college and reunite at a wedding decades later. Tomi talks about the aunties who inspired the books’ protagonists, switching between her editor and writer brains, and her fascination with weddings (she has even attended some pay-for-admission fake ones…). She also describes her publishing journey and the mixed emotions she has felt since her novel’s publication.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: bit.ly/3i5rG8vBookshop: bit.ly/3gzr0YmSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** If you enjoy recommending things you love and even earning from it, you have to become a creator on ShopMy!
