Adichie's compelling tale of a young woman, Ifemelu, who moves from Nigeria to the United States on her own. She leaves behind her mother, father, and her boyfriend. While her aunt is able to help her for a while, Ifemelu soon finds herself on her own in place that is startlingly different from the one she imagined.
She loses her way briefly, before finding her voice as a blogger and must decide which parts of her self and her world to keep and which to put aside. Or something like that. We read this for book group in May, and I find that it has not stuck with me. I enjoyed it.
