_2shay_ 's review for:
Nearly All the Men in Lagos Are Mad
by Damilare Kuku
3.5 stars rounded up to 4! I often enjoy the short story format, especially for the subject matter here so this book definitely delivered on that. One of my main qualms is with all the reviews that call this “fun” or “funny.” I found the writing style pretty enjoyable to read but I would never use either of those words to describe this book, especially given the last story even required a trigger warning for sexual assault (seriously, how can a book with sexual assault in it be described as fun!?). Other than that, my other qualm is that I found myself unsatisfied or left wanting more at the end of each story. Not a whole bunch more, but just a little something extra to make it feel more concluded vs. being left hanging. But then maybe that was the point? Idk!
I’d definitely recommend this, but I would be clear about what it id before doing so.
