The concepts for the stories are interesting, but they just aren’t especially engaging. At times it felt good, but was mostly mediocre

Would this novel be as powerful was I not already familiar and in love with Janelle Monae’s album and videos? Possibly not. I recommend immersing yourself in it all.

Could not get into the audiobook….the stories seemed very convoluted and the overly referencing back to the album felt cheesy
