In total transparency, I needed a quick read to round out my 50th book of the year to meet my reading goal.

This is definitely worth reading. It draws attention to certain things. The author is from Africa and a lot of what it is about is there.

Some of it is about little things a man can do and acknowledge.

This didn't really provide me with anything new but damn can Chimamanda write! Her style is straightforward and engaging and this would have been a fantastic speech to hear. However, I'm not sure it was really worth being published in its own book.
