• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I quite liked the style of writing and it’s an interesting read. The short stories are all enjoyable in their own way and I find it so fascinating to read stories of different countries and parts of the world. I’ll definitely be reading more of Adichie’s work, and more world literature as well.
