Review
"In My Dreams It Was Simpler" .... wow! Fantastic book. Had me reeling ... turning pages on and on, and then left me still very hungry for more. I loved it. The story line is fantastic... with lots and lots to learn, one of which is, "Ladies, let's leave other ladies' men alone". I loved Wole's, Lola's and Funmi's characters the most, but really, I loved all the characters... like they were my own family. Keep up the good job. I really can't wait for the next one when it comes out. I am hungry, very hungry for more!

I have to say a big KUDOS to you guys... to all the writers of the series. I have not finished reading it yet, but it really feels like I am watching a movie. It is fast paced and I am so drawn into the characters, such that I find myself sometimes hating the decisions they make, and sometimes loving them all... it feels sooooo real; doesn't feel like I am reading a book. I guess the word I am looking for is the word "intriguing." Wow!

I've read the book, it's excellent! I really can't wait for the 2nd part. When is it out? Hadn't read a novel in ages but this one I enjoyed so read it quickly. Well done! --Simi
Product Description
Lola, Funmi, Titi, Dolapo, Temmy and Maureen are a tight group of friends. They have been through many ups and downs together, from their pre-university days to the present time as young career women. They constantly have to deal with the measures of success - striking the perfect balance in all aspects of their lives - careers, relationships, cultural expectations, moral dilemmas and the demands of 'having it all'. Then there are the men: Tade - a guy from Temmy's recent past who is now stalking her, Dayo - who Titi is initially reluctant to introduce to her friends, and Wole who appears to tick all the boxes that Lola is looking for but has a shady past she wants to uncover by all means. They are thrown together in a series of intriguing events and twists, their dreams are shattered, and loyalties are tested to breaking point. Against all odds, the six friends have tried to stay afloat, but they don't know what the future holds

Exciting Story-telling,

This review is from: In My Dreams It Was Simpler (Season One) (Kindle Edition)
The Characters came across as regular, everyday people, but they all contributed to an exciting story-line with their complex and quirky personalities. The story reminded me, of desperate housewives a little bit and the surprising twist with each new page just made sure I couldn't stop reading.

This review is from: In My Dreams It Was Simpler (Paperback)
This book is unique in it's casual expressions and distinctive phraseology and use of phrases. The book can be read in a day, very interesting supervenient twists. The narrative draws in the reader, sometimes with too much eagerness. Once you understand the context in which the book is set, you in ...... Look forward to season 2 ..

Captivating!,
By Folake Taylor "Author of The Only Way is Up" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: In My Dreams It Was Simpler (Paperback)
In My Dreams It Was Simpler is unique, captivating and interesting. It truthfully and adequately represents the life of Nigerian young adults living in the UK. I could not put it down till I was done. The fact that a different author wrote for each character made it even more true to life. The language was appropriate. It wasn't over the top and the story-line was excellent. It highlighted the positives and nagatives of having a group of friends. It had life lessons and elements of the real struggles of being a young Christian adult in the world today without being too boring, churchy or even over-bearing. There was no church scene at all but it was speckled with reminders of Christian principles. Since I see it's season 1, I am hoping to see it on TV at some point. It really does read like a screenplay. A lovely read. Highly Recommended. I cannot wait for season 2 and for now, I am glued to the blog for snipets. Good job to the creator and her team of writers that put this together and for once again representing Nigeria in a good light.
