I enjoyed this book. A tragic but engaging story about Elvis, a young man who dreamed of becoming a dancer. However, his move to Lagos with his family was followed by a series of horrific experiences that buried that dream. I particularly enjoyed the dialogue in this novel. Realistic and hilarious.
I didn’t understand the need for all the POV switches and interruptions to write food recipes. In my opinion, it dampened the flow of this great story that deserves 5 stars.
I recommend this book.
