Absolutely exquisite. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars mainly because I can't stop thinking about what (the) Ada did for a living after graduating college, and I'm just that kind of a person that can't let it go. Also, there was quite a lot of stuff I did not understand, often because I don't know Igbo. But that's ok. I think this one would be a great re-read.

Most importantly, I read the majority of this book during a tattoo session, and it was interesting enough to keep me in its grip and distract me from the pain. So that's definitely something!

Edit: I changed my mind. I have to give 5 stars because I'm looking at the other books I've read recently, and this is definitely better than any (or most) of them.
