I have some friends from Nigeria, but I don't know a lot about their culture. I'm excited to read this book to learn more. The first chapter captivated my attention. He has a wonderful way with words and tells his story beautifully.

This sounds interesting as I don't know much about Nigeria's history. In South Africa all you hear about Nigerians is how dangerous they are and that they sell drugs, so this would be a refreshing view of the country and it's people as I'm sure there is so much more to them than just the bad stigma. Thanks for a great review. Congrats on BOTD and thanks for the free book.
