Synopsis
Sleepova
Published by Samuel French
0 Male 4 Female
Join Rey, Elle, Shan and Funmi who have finally convinced their parents to let them hold their very first sleepova
Armed with sugary snacks, school gossip, and secret questions they can only ask each other, their sleepovas become pretty much a sacred space for them
As each year tugs them further into adulthood and life doesn’t pan out quite as they imagined, they struggle to hold on to a friendship that they swore would last a life-time
A frank, funny and moving coming-of-age story, Sleepova is an ode to black women, their boundless spirits and wild dreams
