Heady Mix was founded by Justina Cruickshank, it started as a small idea following my first trip to Nigeria. The Chibok girls were still missing, held in captivity by the terrorist group Boka Haram. I wondered what life would be like growing up in a country where schoolgirl kidnappings were frequent. It got me thinking about equality, about how women are treated and represented, and about the role that books play, how they shape our lives and storyteller the female experience.
