This book wasn't what I expected from it. However, it did deliver on the surprising found family dynamic, and by the end it did mainly make sense. The book, surprisingly, turned to focus on education and equity in Nigeria / Lagos which wasn't what I expected, however was really refreshing and interesting to read out.
