I will 100% be reading the next book as soon as it arrives in the post.
Minor: Bullying, Torture, and Child death
There is an abusive father too but its more verbal and alluded to than any acts actually being literally described in detail.candidcopywriter's review against another edition

That said, when I picked up this book, I hadn't read something I couldn't put down in a long long time. This book? It was over before I realised it! It's a spin on Nigerian folklore, which is fascinating. I also loved that it was light-hearted and fun, even though there were mentions of a serial killer and, of course, an evil villain.
It wasn't dark by any means, so I loved it.
