About this book

Sometimes love starts as friendship and arrives when you least expect it.

This Thing Called Love is a collection of romantic short stories about the many ways love begins: a laugh shared over a book, a look that lasts a second too long, a new crush, or a friendship that slowly becomes something more.

Among its characters are a young man who wins over his friend with jokes and well-timed cookies, a clumsy teenage girl who catches the eye of the most popular boy in school, and a couple who must decide whether love is enough when life is pulling them in different directions.

This is the debut collection from Nigerian writer and spoken word artist Oreva Ode-Irri. Sweet, funny and easy to dip into, it is a lovely choice for romance readers and makes a thoughtful gift.
