Sista Sister by Candice Brathwaite

- QUERCUS, £16.99 (EBOOK, £9.99) REVIEW BY ELSPETH KEEP

Sista Sister’s title speaks for itself – it’s that older and wiser friend you always wish you’d had, or that sibling who’s got your back. Candice Brathwaite’s second book is a compilatio­n of essays unpicking life’s big lessons: from family, friends and money to black hair, sex and social media – no topic is off limits. The honest and profound words have been chosen carefully and speak volumes about society, making this a must read. Hugely emotive in parts, the author’s warmth and humour radiates off the page. You can’t help but feel she’s talking directly to you over a cup of coffee.
