So conflicted about this. On the one hand, I didn't like it, but on the other I still wanna read more by her?

I didn’t look at this book carefully. I saw Adichie’s name and requested it from the library thinking it might be a novella. Instead, it is a short story (certainly worth reading but not my favorite work of Adiche’s) from THAT THING AROUND YOUR NECK (2009).
