I've heard lots of praise for this one. A generational family saga set on multiple contents sounds like something I need in my life.
I've heard that this Adichie novel is a bit more intense than her other novels, but I really love her writing and want to read all her works. I have only read one, so really all of her works are on this list. I really love all of the different editions of Adichie's novels, so it will take some searching before I decide which edition of this one I want to pick up.
Another novel with a setting on multiple contents, this has been labeled as Adichie's best work so far.
I've been wanting to read this one after reading so much about Beryl Markham last year. I have never seen the movie (which I hear is quite different) so I can see a back-to-back marathon in my future.
I had to stop myself from buying this one in the book store the other day, as it sounds so cool. A magic-school series set in Africa. Yes Please!
I've heard lots of great things about this one, and it sounds like it has a similar feel to Purple Hibiscus in that it's a character driven family drama.
Leave me recommendations for your favorite fiction set in Africa so I can expand this list!
So many of these are on my TBR, too! After reading Stay With Me and Adichie's The Thing Around Your Neck last year (both of which I highly recommend picking up) I've discovered a love for books set in Nigeria, so I'd love to pick more up and read more books set across the entire continent, too. I need to get to Homegoing and Adichie's novels, and Akata Witch is another one that's on my TBR - the new covers are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI had such a hard time putting back Akata Witch, and I know it will be one of the first books I pick up when I get through some of the books I already own!
DeleteThanks for stopping by Jess!
