“You’re not imagining it. The pain. The silence. The way they love you… but never quite like you.”
Sabrina Alicia Thompson has everything that should spell success — a law degree, a sharp tongue, and heels that click like she owns every room. But behind closed doors, in the quiet after a diagnosis of PCOS and another night spent alone, she begins to unravel what it truly means to be a Black woman in a world that praises her performance but ignores her pain.
From Sunday salon showdowns to solo late-night sobs, Loved, But Never Liked dives deep into the emotional landscape of a woman navigating family judgement, medical gaslighting, and dating in an era where vulnerability is seen as weakness.
Told with unfiltered humour, heartbreak, and lyrical rage, this story is a powerful love letter to every woman who's ever felt invisible, unchosen, or “too much.”
Ebz Dixon delivers a raw, witty, and soul-stirring tale of grief, growth, and gritty South London womanhood.
💛 Perfect for fans of Candice Carty-Williams, Warsan Shire, and Michaela Coel.
