UYAI Novel

Uyai, whose name means beauty, has always despised her appearance. Tall for her age with angular features—high cheekbones, a bony frame, small eyes, and full lips—she feels far from beautiful. In her village, where curvy figures are prized and thinness scorned, Uyai stands alone, lacking the curves that blessed her sister Affiong, who easily attracts male attention. When two young men compete for Affiong's affection, one manipulates her into falling for him, leaving her pregnant and heartbroken. Uyai accompanies her disgraced sister as she is forced to leave home for the city of Calabar. During their journey, a series of overwhelming yet transformative events unfold. Through these experiences, Uyai finally discovers the true meaning of her name.
