Cursed Daughters by Oyinkan Braithwaite
When Eniiyi is born bearing an uncanny resemblance to her dead cousin, her family insists she is Monife reborn and bound by a generations‑long curse that dooms relationships. As she falls in love with a young man she rescues, Eniiyi must confront family myths, secrecy, and spiritual traditions in Lagos to decide whether she will repeat the same tragic patterns or find a way to break free. The novel mixes sharp humor with questions of love, rivalry, and what it means to inherit — and resist — a family story.
