Overall, I found this an inspirational, heartfelt story about a young woman living in a culture most Americans are completely unfamiliar with, presented in a very approachable way. The descriptions of Lagos and the characters’ lifestyles are also done in a way that made it easy for someone (me!) who knows almost nothing about Nigeria to follow along and enjoy reading about the culture there. The writing style is clear and simple, but with snippets of Nigerian dialect for flavor. However, she learns to listen to her inner voice and forge her own path. 1Dennis Herbert, Twisted in a Positive Wa圜hikamso C Efobi, Dance of the Gods (Circle Trilogy)Nora Roberts, Population Geography. ![]() Adaugo is an academically gifted girl who does well in school but ends up finding herself shunted into a dead-end career after college and pressured to marry an appropriate–meaning rich and preferably light-skinned–man as soon as possible.
