Emem Uko, whose first name means "peace" in Annang, a dialect of Akwa Ibom, Nigeria was born in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Emem developed a love for story books and writing at an early age and blames it on her parents’ decision to buy her books instead of candy. During her master’s program, Emem began a blog, Z and S, as a hobby and as a way to clear her head from the stress of school life. She continues to blog and covers a wide range of topics from fashion to TV series and book reviews. Enjoy her books and watch out for more from her!
