She has been on the receiving end of the question in the title of her novel many times, and now lives with her husband in Milton Keynes, England..
About author(s): Born and raised in London, Lizzie Damilola Blackburn is a British-Nigerian writer who won the Literary Consultancy Pen Factor Writing Competition in 2019 with an early draft of her debut novel.
Wry, acerbic, moving, this is a love story that makes you smile but also makes you think--and explores what it means to find Your way between two cultures, both of which are yours.
Will Yinka find herself a huzband ? And what if the thing she really needs to find is herself? Yinka , Where is Your Huzband? brilliantly subverts the traditional romantic comedy with an unconventional heroine who bravely asks the questions we all have about love.
Aided by a spreadsheet and her best friend, Yinka is determined to succeed.
Still, when her cousin gets engaged, Yinka commences Operation Find-A-Date for Rachel\'s Wedding.
But Yinka herself has always believed that true love will find her when the time is right. --Beth O\'Leary, international bestselling author of The Flatshare Meet Yinka: a thirty-something, Oxford-educated, British Nigerian woman with a well-paid job, good friends, and a mother whose constant refrain is "Yinka, Where is Your huzband ?" Yinka\'s Nigerian aunties frequently pray for her delivery from singledom, her work friends think she\'s too traditional (she\'s saving herself for marriage!), her girlfriends think she needs to get over her ex already, and the men in her life...well, that\'s a whole other story.
Yinka is the most lovable character I\'ve come across in a long time.
