i marked it as dnf about halfway through. i wanted to love it bc i heard so many great things, and i was reading it as part of that 'one book, one new york' initiative, but it just wasn't doing it for me.

lol i have only ever not finished one book tbh! and it still sits on my shelf and i feel bad

[janacjb]

I personally liked it, but it was not well received in my book club lol. Most people didn't finish.

I liked it, but the synopsis in this article kind of overblows Obinze's parts in London. It's far and away about Ifemelu.

[bellwetherr]

lol i wonder if that means they're going to expand on a few bits for the series

[asth77]

[bellwetherr]
