Readers are talking about I Do Not Come to You By Chance by Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani. Here’s what APOOO member/reviewer, Dera Williams, had to say:
I’m finishing up I Do Not Come to You By Chance by Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani. I am so enjoying this book set in Nigerian. I love her writing which is full of detail of culture, language and infused with humor. It is also a social and political commentary on the country. How so many Nigerians aspire to higher education, struggle and sacrifice for it, only to be disappointed because of the economy. There are several Nigerians in my school district that I am getting to know better and this book is helping me to understand one of our vice chancellors. The Nigerian email scams figure prominently in this book also.
