The collection has been described as "a debut publication that invites readers on a poetic journey paved with goofiness, love dealings and dilemma, child-rearing and childhood, supplication, existential musings, corporate chaos, mischiefs and misadventures, and outright naughtiness." and also as "witty, it's irreverent, it's relatable, and most importantly, it is refreshing."

Card game invention
In 2014, Yemi invented two card games. One was called The Game of Giants, designed "to teach history in a fun and interactive way"

. She has also suggested new informal holidays in Nigeria.
