3/5 Stars (%59/100)
As other people mentioned, the first part of the book is very very slow. If you can get through it, it becomes much better, especially towards the end. There are lots of temporal jumps so this also makes it a bit difficult to follow. However, in the end, Selasi manages to portray the experiences of African (im)migrants beautifully. The parts with Sadie especially made me really sad. All the characters are very relatable and you can find things that you can associate with. In general, it is a good book but as I've said, the first part is problematic in my opinion.
