A review by engrossedreader
The Arrangements by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
3.0
This 30 minute read was an entertaining one and coincidentally meant that I had to start a new shelf here at Goodreads: 'current affairs'. What does that say about me, that I don't read topical books?
I'm interested in 'events of political or social interest and importance happening in the world at the present time'.(Dictionary.com). I keep up with such events usually through news media rather than books
But back to the book. There's nothing new here be it wild gossip or slander. It's all you've probably imagined as being in the realms of possibility - given previous behaviour or read about. We have a day in the life of this relatively unknown woman married to the infamous boorish man who became President. Wry smile in places, perhaps one theme that you might think 'ah, this is perhaps a little different, should I go down the rabbit hole of internet research or reddit?' Other than that it's more of what you already know.
Narrator was fabulous. A fun short read.
