This was such a good book! I've never read anything like this before and I really loved the author's writing style. I was completely immersed in the plot and I felt all sorts of emotions over the course of the book. I'm really excited to see what else this author comes up with because I'm going to remember this reading experience for a long time. The way the author seamlessly wove factual Nigerian history into the narrative was so well done and it inspired me to research the Nigerian Civil War that took place in the 1960's. The author's note gives a very good explanation of the basics for those who are going into this book with little knowledge of the history behind it, so I highly recommend reading that first if you're confused!
