Since my childhood, I love Reading and I specialize on Physical books. I find it hard reading with my phone or A Laptop or even a Computer, But whenever I read with a Physical Book, I see myself in that Scenario, I feel the moments I read from the Book and I fully understand what I am learning.
I Love Reading Novels, Textbooks as well as Magazines. But I love reading novels the most, they are so magical. I read Novels to the extent that I started putting down something too to start up writing my own Novel, which I would publish, well, it's still in the progress though. I read Novels at least twice a Week and I spend not less than 3 hours at one sitting if reading a Novel. Am not that very fast while reading, but I love the pace at which I read and it helps me too, to be able to grab what I am reading.
The Last Book I read was a Novel titled The Rejected Child. It is actually a Nigerian Secondary school novel which I found and was kin about the novel, so I started reading the novel, well, I just finished this particular novel yesterday, and I will share with you what the Novel is actually about. The novel was written by Tina Bogwu.
The novel is about a man and his wife, Engr Kola and Dr (Mrs) Ada Omowunmi, who were good ambassadors of their families, their communities and Nigeria at large. Their only son Ayo was instigated with the Family's achievement and that pushed him into using his position and privilege to assault their innocent maid Omolaso. The assault eventually resulted to an unwanted pregnancy and Ayo's parents though under shame pleaded with their son to accept his responsibility but the shame of stooping low to marrying the maid Omolaso made him deaf. He went on to disregard the parents and moved on with his life marrying his Heartthrob, Nneka. But Karma is real.
Ayo and Nneka lived a Turbulent life. Their children never came as expected. Twins arrived after having false hope for sometime but the twins – Joseph and Mary, were later derailed and died prematurely during their different escapades. But then on the other hand, Opeyemi – the child of Omolaso, became a renowned surgeon. Ayo then became full of regret and remorse. He pleaded to Opeyemi and his own parents as well for forgiveness. Opeyemi, the rejected child eventually becomes the solution to the family.
Ayo Brought shame to the family and disappointment to his parents but still, the consistent faith of his mother turns things around for him for good,but not quite so for his own children who refused to change from their bad ways.
That proofs that God is all-knowing. No one has the right to condemn another. Opeyemi, the rejected child emerges the Cornerstone and solution to the Omowunmi's Family. So sometimes in our lives can be messed up due to our shortcomings of failures of those close to us; but hard work, honesty and true faith in God pays off in the end.
It was such a a Nice novel and I wish y'all can as well read it. Weekend is always a seemingly free time for me to read novels and I think this coming weekend would be great for me to pick a new novel to read. I am planning on reading another novel titled Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I have heard a lot about this particular one and I think it will be best for me to try it out too.
