Greta Gerwig

In this book, Ms. Adichie has constructed a full on romance that has the addictive power of a Jane Austen novel but with the specifics of life in Nigeria, as well as life in the United States as an immigrant. I fell in love with Ifemelu and Obinze in a way that I haven’t felt since I was a child reading novels for the first time.

A beautiful novel. I fell in love with the strength of the main character. It looks at racism and choices we make, and how it all pans out. It’s about race, relationships, politics… inspiring and moving.

Gabrielle Union

One of my favorite novels of all time. A sweeping, beautifully told love story that spans two countries and holds the reader captive to the last page.
