It’s been a couple of weeks, but I started my reading journey for the year with two books with similar themes, but whose messaging about love and relationships couldn’t be further apart. In Caleb Azumah Nelson’s Open Water, love throws you out into the deep end and leaves you vulnerable to drowning. On the other hand, in Damilare Kuku’s riotous Nearly All the Men in Lagos are Mad (and you just know the women would have to be madder), love is a battleground, and only the craziest can survive it.
