This month’s book is His Only Wife by Peace Adzo Medie.

Afi Tekple’s life is narrowing rapidly. She lives in a small town in Ghana with her widowed mother, spending much of her time in her uncle’s house with his many wives and children. Then one day she is offered a life-changing opportunity—a proposal of marriage from the wealthy family of Elikem Ganyo, a man she doesn’t truly know. Only weeks after Afi is married and installed in a plush apartment in the capital city of Accra does she meet her new husband. It turns out that he is in love with another woman, whom his family disapproves of.
