At page 150/390 and I don’t hate it, but I don’t really like it either?? I might continue reading it in the background of other more interesting books. It’s not bad enough to DNF, but neither the characters nor the plot are captivating to me. It’s not the kind of book you can’t put down, or don’t stop thinking about.

I’m 115 pages into this novel and all the first two characters have done is recount all their previous romantic relationships with men. They’re all Nigerian women in their early to late thirties and so their stories are tinged with a disdain for men who wasted their time and a desperation for children they feel they’re getting too late to have. So far, nothing groundbreaking has been said. Tbh, I’m bored.
