4.0

"'Not his-tory,' I say. 'My own will be called her-story. Adunni's story.'"

This book is truly something special. While my brain seemed to struggle at the beginning with the use of broken English, I soon adapted and was consumed by both the character Adunni and her story. A remarkable girl. I found it refreshing to read a story set in Nigeria, it put me out of my comfort zone and offered me new perspectives and knowledge. Highly recommend.
