I read Aya the secret come out, by Marguerite Abouet.
Marguerite Abouet has also written Aya de Yopougon. These two books are
similar. In both books, the protagonist is Aya and the characters are the same.
In Aya The secret come out, Marguerite Abouet talk about three young girls
of Yopougon one neighborhood of Abidjan capital of Ivory Coast (
West Africa). The theme is about friendship.
This book is about three girls of Yopougon their names are
Aya, Adjoua, and Bintou, there are all friend Aya is the most conscientious she
work very well at school and care about her future. Bintou and Adjoua prefer to
go out every night instead study they don’t care of their future they just like
run behind men. Aya always try to give them some advices but they don’t want to
listen to her and get mad. They say Aya is jealous of them because they are
beautiful than her. Many years later Bintou and Adjoua change because life
became difficult for them they regretted do not be at school and study hard as
Aya. The most important conflict is when Adjoua gets pregnant and lies that
Bintou’s boyfriend is the dad of her baby. He could not say that he is not the
baby’s father because they had a relationship. He cheated on Bintou with her
friend so when she learned what Adjoua and his boyfriend did she went fight
with Adjoua and tell her she will kill her baby.
I highly recommend you to read this book as soon as possible
because it can be an example for all girls and everybody. You should also read
it now because this book is full of advices for all girls that don’t like take
seriously her education and put her future above and beyond everything of their
life.
