520    "A timely and arresting debut for anyone looking for 
       insight into what it means to be a Black woman in the 
       world. Three Black women are linked in unexpected ways to 
       the same influential white man in Stockholm as they build 
       their new lives in the most open society run by the most 
       private people. Successful marketing executive Kemi 
       Adeyemi is lured from the U.S. to Sweden by Jonny von 
       Lundin, CEO of the nation's largest marketing firm, to 
       help fix a PR fiasco involving a racially tone-deaf 
       campaign. A killer at work but a failure in love, Kemi's 
       move is a last-ditch effort to reclaim her social life. A 
       chance meeting with Jonny in business class en route to 
       the U.S. propels former model-turned-flight-attendant 
       Brittany-Rae Johnson into a life of wealth, luxury, and 
       privilege--a life she's not sure she wants--as the object 
       of his unhealthy obsession. And Somali refugee Muna Saheed,
       who lost her entire family, finds a job cleaning the 
       toilets at Jonny's office as she works to establish her 
       residency in Sweden and, more importantly, seeks 
       connection and a place she can call home. Told through the
       perspectives of each of the three women, In Every Mirror 
       She's Black is a fast-paced, richly nuanced yet accessible
       contemporary novel that touches on important social issues
       of racism, classism, fetishization, and tokenism, and what
       it means to be a Black woman navigating a white-dominated 
       society. Lola Akinmade Åkerström is an African-American 
       (Nigerian-American) award-winning author, speaker, and 
       photographer based in Sweden. This is her first novel"--
