One of The New York Times Book Review's Ten Best Books of the Year

LONGLISTED 2015 - International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award

From the award-winning author of Half of a Yellow Sun, a dazzling new novel: a story of love and race centered around a young man and woman from Nigeria who face difficult choices and challenges in the countries they come to call home.

As teenagers in a Lagos secondary school, Ifemelu and Obinze fall in love. Their Nigeria is under military dictatorship, and people are leaving the country if they can. Ifemelu--beautiful, self-assured--departs for America to study. She suffers defeats and triumphs, finds and loses relationships and friendships, all the while feeling the weight of something she never thought of back home: race. Obinze--the quiet, thoughtful son of a professor--had hoped to join her, but post-9/11 America will not let him in, and he plunges into a dangerous, undocumented life in London.

Years later, Obinze is a wealthy man in a newly democratic Nigeria, while Ifemelu has achieved success as a writer of an eye-opening blog about race in America. But when Ifemelu returns to Nigeria, and she and Obinze reignite their shared passion--for their homeland and for each other--they will face the toughest decisions of their lives.
Fearless, gripping, at once darkly funny and tender, spanning three continents and numerous lives, Americanah is a richly told story set in today's globalized world: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's most powerful and astonishing novel yet.

Looked amazing… but not built for broader shoulders
Size: Small, Color: Blue, Size: Small, Color: Blue
I got this for my husband because he’s fully leaning into his cowboy era lately (new boots, new attitude, the whole thing), and I thought this shirt would seal the deal. First impression—honestly impressed. The color is really nice and the embroidery detail looks great in person. It doesn’t feel cheap at all and definitely looks more high-end than expected. For reference, he’s about 5’6”, 140 lbs with an athletic build. The shirt almost worked—it fit well through the body and could be fully buttoned, but the shoulders were just too tight. As soon as he moved his arms, it felt restrictive, like the seams were being pushed to their limit. Which is a shame… because wow, he looked GOOD in this. And that’s coming from someone who doesn’t usually love this style. I’d say this shirt runs better for slimmer or narrower builds. If you’ve got broader shoulders or any upper body muscle, you may want to size up or skip this one. Overall, great quality and style, just not the right fit for an athletic frame.

A Western Shirt That Works as Hard as It Looks
Size: Medium, Color: Blue
A Western Shirt That Works as Hard as It Looks This men's western shirt strikes a really solid balance between style and everyday wearability. The cotton-polyester blend fabric keeps things soft and breathable without feeling too heavy, and the exquisite floral embroidery on the turn down collar adds a level of detail that makes it look far more elevated than a basic button down. Whether you're heading to a country concert, a western-themed party, or just pairing it with jeans and cowboy boots on a casual day out, it fits the moment without trying too hard. The versatility here is genuinely one of the stronger selling points. It works just as well at a rodeo or western-themed wedding as it does for everyday casual wear, and the timeless embroidered design means it won't feel dated after a season. Care is simple with machine or hand wash and hang to dry, so it's low maintenance for something that looks this put together. It also makes a thoughtful and practical gift for a husband, boyfriend, or father who appreciates a little western flair in their wardrobe. Just make sure to check the size chart carefully before ordering since sizing can vary with this style of shirt.

Well Made
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy Blue
When my husband put this shirt on, the women comment him on how he looks. I have to admit "He looks great in this attractive western shirt." The blue is a nice blue. He bought a black one, too and it is also very well made and nice looking. The sizing was perfect. It is wrinkle resistance, a great fabric thickness and comfortable. Definitely would buy him another if these ever wear out. It is a great value for the money.

Great Quality - Son loves it!
Size: Large, Color: Black
I ordered this beautiful Western shirt for my son for Christmas. He loves it so much he wears it once a week. The quality is excellent. The fabric is relatively thick, but not too thick - a nice, sturdy fabric. The embroidery is absolutely beautiful! It looks even better in person. The large fit him true to size, like all his other size large men's button up shirts. There are no loose threads or flaws in the stitching. It looks and feels expensive - well worth every penny of the $40 price. It has held up well in the wash. There has been no fading or shrinking. It is now March and it has been washed once a week since Christmas. (Please note - I don't put it in the dryer. I hang it to dry.) I highly recommend if you are looking for a fancy Western shirt.

Got more than I paid for and am so impressed!
Size: Medium, Color: Burgundy, Size: Medium, Color: Burgundy
Absolutely stunning! Great material quality and embroidery work. Every bit the same as those you'd buy at Boot Barn or other western stores for $70 to $100. I'm so impressed!! I purchased these for my son's band (4 shirts for 4 band members) and the band members love them. This saved me so much money. I'm so happy with them and plan to purchase more of these in different colors and styles. The men said they're comfortable and love wearing them.
