Lucky Girl was a look at how a Nigerian woman views life as she moves to New York to pursue her dreams. With the strong beliefs that she grew up with at war with her trying to live her life to her desires, Soila has a hard time knowing what to do. Through the ups and downs of life in the big city, she finds what she should do and what she wants to do are two very different things. This book was emotional, intelligent, funny, and heartwarming, all rolled into one. Soila's story will leave you with a desire to live to your heart's fullest. 4 stars. Thank you, NetGalley for the eARC.
