In this sensational, page-turning debut novel, a high-profile female journalistâs world is upended when her fiancéâs name turns up in a viral social media post.
âBrilliantly written, intricately plotted and incredibly clever. Once I started, I could not put it down, and I am sure I'll be thinking about this book for a very long time.â â Abi Daré, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl with the Louding Voice
Ola Olajide, a celebrated journalist at Womxxxn magazine, is set to marry the love of her life. Young, beautiful, and successful, she and her fiancé, Michael, are considered the âcouple goalsâ of their social network and seem to have it all. That is, until one morning when they both wake up to the same message: âOh my god, have you seen The List?âÂ
It began as a list of anonymous allegations about abusive men. Now it has been published online. Ola would usually be the first to support such a listâshe'd call for the men to be fired, write article after article. Except this time, Michael's name is on it.
With one month to the wedding, Ola gives Michael an ultimatum: prove his innocence or the wedding's off. But will the truth of what happened change everything for them both?
Compulsively readable, wildly entertaining, and filled with sharp social insight, The List is a piercing and dazzlingly clear-sighted debut about secrets, lies, and the internet.
âTopical, heartfelt, provocative and wise, Yomi Adegokeâs characters are tenderly realized . . . the entire cast of this ultimate millennial novel springs vividly to life.â â Bernardine Evaristo, Booker Prize-winning author of Girl, Woman, Other
 âThe List asks âwhat if?â and the answers will surely get people thinking. A vibrantly told exploration of the messy interface between virtual and offline relationships. A page-turning tale!â â Charmaine Wilkerson, New York Times bestselling author of Black Cake
