They peeled my scalp back, cracked my skull open, and wrote exactly what's going on in my brain. What the heck Akwaeke Emezi my future spouse. How dare you. I love you. I guess I'm an ogbanje? Is it appropriative of me to say that even though I know my ancestry comes from Nigeria I'm just not sure which people group? Anyway anyway. I am her and they is me and I am we. Amazing. I'm so glad I chose to pock this up this month. THIS IS Black history NOW !!!

the writing is powerful and evocative, and i think i’m going to struggle to find something better written than this.
i’ll conclude this with this thought: the really scary parts of this aren’t what happens to ada (those are clearly EXTREMELY depressing and deserve TWs in their own right) but rather ada’s developing and deteriorating psychology.
terrifying. i’ll be hard-pressed to find a psychological thriller better done than this.
