Half of a yellow sun, 2006, by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie *****

I read this book 2 year after it was published, I loved it and it is one of my favourite. This was my review then literally, I was so excited

"it was so entertaining and I learnt a lot.. I learnt too much you must read it."

Chimamanda did a great job I must say. She was awarded the Orange Prize for Fiction for this book. Excellently written, very understandable and an easy read.

It narrates on  a personal story that took place during the Biafran War, story of love, betrayal, desperation and human relationship.

It gave me better understanding of what the war was like and how the Nigerian family of different classes had to deal with it. This is a book I highly recommend to everybody.
