Second Class Citizen by Buchi Emecheta
4.0
As an autobiographical fiction, Second Class Citizen starts with Ada in Nigeria who strives to live her best which leads her to marry young so that she can achieve her dreams. However, her status London is no different from Nigeria, where she is treated as a sub-human because of her double status of being black and a woman.
Y'all! This book gave me all the feels. It is written in a straightforward but beautiful manner. Though she makes a lot of Biblical references to illustrate a number of issues, they are aptly inserted and easy to follow.
Since this book is shy of 200 pages, I won't add any more details. Second Citizen Class has a lot of fodder that I would highly recommend this book as one to be read as a black woman with your significant other, besties or significant other. I am going to a get a personal copy so that I can soak it all again.
