War Girls by Tochi Onyebuchi
3.0
I almost gave up on this book. I as well had no prior knowledge of the Nigerian Civil War. I knew this book was based on that but I mean I have read many other books based on factual events I had no idea about and that did not stop me from enjoying a good story.
What really got me was in the first half of the book all of the jumping back and forth. I was like was there a plane crash ? IS that the same plane crash or is this a second one? Wait when did that one happen. It was just a lot. I was tempted to just give up on it but I kept going and the second half of the book it got better and I could see why there was a second book. So all of that to say it might be confusing but just keep reading and it does get better.
