really liked it

This is the story of Juletane, an orphan from a #Caribbean island who is sent to Paris to live with a relative when she’s 10 years old. In university, she meets this handsome and charming Senegalese man and marries him. They return to Senegal together and only then she finds out she’s not the only (or the first) wife. What follows is a terrible journey that rips apart her soul. This book is so good you’ll want to read it in one sitting, and probably could since it’s under 200 pages. It has a bit of everything, a bit of psychological thriller, crime and intrigue, romance, subtle feminism, discussion on race and a free-of-charge trip to Senegal. I cannot recommend it enough.
