I think my first novel was "If tomorrow comes" by Sidney Sheldon then Stranger in the mirror , The other side of Midnight, Besty by Harold Robins,. Read lots of pacesetters to. This is assuming Yoruba novels like Igbo Olodumare, Ogboju Ode et at are not counted.

I have read loads of books but I think the first novel I read is ' The Passport of Mallam Ilia ' by Cyprian Ekwensi. It is a classic Nigerian novel and it is very easy to read. The book looks like a passport itself. I read the book the first time while I was in Primary four. I have reread several times since then. Someone told me recently that some American movie producers want to turn the book into a film. For me, The Passport of Mallam Ilia is it. Cheers.

Nyengi Koin you mean? Excellent novel, it painted an almost vivid picture of couples dealing with sickle cell disease.
