Bolu Babalola’s writing is incredible. The stories that were told, were beautiful. I think I just struggled with it being short stories instead of one novel that I could follow and root for the characters from beginning to end. This was my first anthology and I learned a lot about myself and my reading style. I believe if I were to read the stories individually instead of taking this on as I have any other novel, my rating would have been different. Overall, I did love the book and hope to revisit the stories in the future.
