有点失望????…是因为期望太高了吗
评分有点黑色(一不小心双关了)幽默的quick read,有声书也就4个小时而已,而且口音关系有声版本更入戏。plotwise是个挺常见的“伦理片”设定:男人都是看见漂亮脸蛋就没魂儿的大猪蹄子,同事们看见热闹肯定往前凑,只有亲姐妹(哪怕是有杀男朋友习惯的妹妹)才靠得住。故事很可预期,转折来得也不出乎预料,尼日利亚的背景给了整本书一点“海外风情”,可以当个轻喜剧看看。
评分audible的口音简直酸爽哈哈哈哈哈哈
评分篇幅很短,文字很吸引人

OYINKAN BRAITHWAITE is a graduate of Creative Writing and Law from Kingston University. Following her degree, she worked as an assistant editor at Kachifo, a Nigerian publishing house, and has been freelancing as a writer and editor since. In 2014, she was shortlisted as a top-ten spoken-word artist in the Eko Poetry Slam, and in 2016 she was a finalist for the Commonwealth Short Story Prize. She lives in Lagos, Nigeria.
Satire meets slasher in this short, darkly funny hand grenade of a novel about a Nigerian woman whose younger sister has a very inconvenient habit of killing her boyfriends.
Korede is bitter. How could she not be? Her sister, Ayoola, is many things: the favorite child, the beautiful one, possibly sociopathic. And now Ayoola's third boyfriend in a row is dead. Korede's practicality is the sisters' saving grace. She knows the best solutions for cleaning blood, the trunk of her car is big enough for a body, and she keeps Ayoola from posting pictures of her dinner to Instagram when she should be mourning her "missing" boyfriend. Not that she gets any credit.
A kind, handsome doctor at the hospital where Korede works, is the bright spot in her life. She dreams of the day when he will realize they're perfect for each other. But one day Ayoola shows up to the hospital uninvited and he takes notice. When he asks Korede for Ayoola's phone number, she must reckon with what her sister has become and what she will do about it.
Sharp as nails and full of deadpan wit, Oyinkan Braithwaite has written a deliciously deadly debut that's as fun as it is frightening.
