    About this audiobook

    After almost four years of studying at Tubman Walker, a Historically Black College/University, Norah is ready to graduate and leave the social scene behind. First, she has to finish her student film about HBCU Homecoming weekend, and get to know each of her subjects better.

    As she interviews and follows Caleb, an activist from a politically aware, well-off family, and Taiwo, a first-generation American struggling to get by with student jobs, each of them starts to draw her in and inspire her overactive imagination. With little experience and even less confidence, Norah has to navigate making the movie, her growing attraction to each subject, and the minefield that is Homecoming fashion.

      Meh. I had high hopes for this book. I am an HBCU graduate AND it’s actually homecoming season. I was bored through most of it and I didn’t care for the narrator. She’d make a great news anchor, but I wasn’t feeling her with this book.

      I think the story was cute. I felt like I was going to a homecoming. I do feel the story was cut a little short.

      The story was ok, it was a quick and nicely developed story HOWEVER, I probably would’ve enjoyed it better had it been read by someone else. It sounded like I was being read to by channel 6 news anchor lol not horrible but didn’t care for the narration.
