How To Be A Better Adult Jacque Aye

Nigerian Manga Creator Jacque Aye Pens Magical Novel About an Anxious Woman Navigating Corporate America

Inspired by her time in and out of Corporate America, author Jacque Aye takes a
surreal, magical approach to navigating the shark-infested waters of corporate culture.

In How to Be a Better Adult, Hope Obiako, disillusioned by her mundane existence as a
lowly account specialist, discovers a mysterious handbook that drastically changes her
life.

How To Be A Better Adult


Hope is a master performer, making a show of her competence and compliance. And
while she really is both competent and compliant, no one at William Hensley &
Associates seems to see it. But what they never saw coming, behind her quiet and
agreeable personality, is Hope’s drive to “make it” by any magical means necessary.

Jacque Aye – Creator


“I was inspired to write How to Be a Better Adult because of both my hatred for
Corporate America, and my love for surreal, magical fiction,” Aye said. “I’m passionate

about expanding the representation of Black women in media, and this book does just
that. The main character is a bi-sexual, neurodivergent child of immigrants who just
wants to fit in–I ripped it straight from my own life.”


How to Be a Better Adult is currently available for purchase.
