Welcome to Lagos by Chibundu Onuzo

This book was not my jam.
I liked the characters and the way the author set up Nigeria, showing us many different viewpoints into a world we'll probably never fully know.
But it was slow, I didn't really care for the plot, and reading it was incredibly difficult. I switched to audiobook fairly early on and even then I was struggling to understand what the characters were saying. I know that makes it true to the characters but it just didn't work for me.
Cover 3; Characters 3; Plot 2; Pace 2; Writing 3; Enjoyment 2.
