4.0
A strong debut with lots to unpack, especially patriarchal and familial expectations around having kids and how damaging that is for couples struggling with infertility.
I didn't find the characters very likable but my heart still broke for them.
The audiobook is narrated well and helped transport me to Nigeria where the story takes place.
