Waiting Gracefully is a much-anticipated manual for women who are in the waiting season of their lives. I love how practical and relatable the entire book is.

You were real in this book. You admitted that your journey to marriage was less than perfect which is something a lot of women can relate to and you made me see that God's grace is not for perfection, it is for the person we are meant to be. I love how you wove stories of your own experience/mistakes and the experience of others into the book to be able to drive the point across. I also like how the style of the book is like a friend chatting to another friend.

About the book

Bunmi had grand plans for herself when it came to marriage. She was convinced she would be married by 25 and have all her children by 30. After a broken engagement and more failed relationships than she cares to admit, it became clear that she needed to know more about getting married.
After finding herself single for a while and with no potential husband in sight, she finally paid attention to God who had been trying to get her attention all along. In Waiting Gracefully, she takes you through the twists and turns of the journey from being single to arriving at her final destination.
No area is off limits in this detailed guide for single women who desire marriage but would love to enjoy their time of singleness as well. From sex to heartbreak, limiting beliefs to preparing for marriage, Bunmi lays it all out for you so that you can say when you get married, “I waited gracefully, the way God intended.”

I love how detailed the content of the book is. I strongly feel a teenager can pick up this book and it will speak to them. It is not complicated, yet it is well thought out especially the anecdotes in the storyline. It is quite relatable. I could also perceive Bunmi's passion for empowering single Christian women to find themselves and wait gracefully till their purpose marriage season arrives. It is a book that will be suitable for not just Christians but people of different faiths.
