333 pages in...really enjoyed the first 1/3, but liking it less and less, with all the caricature boyfriend's friends and Ifemelu being a cold, disdainful, selfish person. I actually like the blog posts but can't imagine Ifemelu writing them, or caring enough about anything (except Dike) to write them. So far I wish there had been more Obinze (although his UK section was rather spoiled by the 1-dimensional character vignettes in much the same ways as Ifemelu's once she gets a job).

Finished - meh, got the feeling this could have been a great book of essays on race AND a good migration story AND a good romance, but in trying to cram all three together it didn't really work and overall was a disappointing read.

But enjoyed the writing enough that I will definitely seek out Adichie's other novels and short story collection.
