Purple Hibiscus by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
challenging
dark
emotional
tense
4.0
That was intense. Not exactly looking forward to making sense of this with 15 year olds, but it'll build their character.
Adichie is amazing at the first person POV, of slowly revealing to us what has happened and what is happening with this family. I found it difficult to read at times, but overall an engrossing and moving snapshot of Kambili growing up quickly and rapidly.
