A mix
This was a pretty good read. Though it is historical fiction, the stories were so captivating and relatable that it could have been modern day stories. It helped me to learn about a piece of history that I wasn't sure of. While it was hard to keep up with all the different characters and storylines at first, I eventually was able to differentiate between everyone.
Some of the sex scenes felt unnecessary. I'm still unsure of Ogwu's "urges" and what they meant.
Overall, this story has a little bit of everything: love, family issues, civil war, international views of war, heartbreak, betrayal, and moments of joy.
