nannahnannah's review against another edition
DNF @ 47%.
Representation:
- almost every character is Nigerian
I got to page 203 when I got an uncomfortable feeling from the description, ā[his] voice was unmistakable; it was vibrantly male ā¦ā and had to look Adichie up. Sure enough, this is the transphobic author who, among things like bullying a trans author under her mentorship, approved of Rowlingās "TERF Manifestoā.Ā
I thought I had deleted all her books from my to-read list, but I must have missed this one. Stopping here doesnāt make me upset; I disliked most of the characters in this book and only didnāt mind the rest.Ā
Iād much rather read someone elseās work.
