For #LeiaMulheres book club.

This story about fertility and motherhood really wrapped me up in the narrative more than I expected it to (I don't really care about those things very much). The plot-twisting revelations were such a great addition to the story, though the story crafter in me was disappointed that the stakes weren't high enough for one of them. The book was engaging and the pacing was great.

I am continually impressed by the Nigerian novels that I read. I am slowly picking up more about Nigeria's history along the way. This one is set in the 70's turmoil post-civil war (see Half a Yellow Sun) and during a coup that followed. Interesting.
