This was a highly entertaining quick read!
I have been wanting to read more science fiction and I am so glad I picked this one up at my local library. I have read a couple Nnedi Okorafor books in the past and they never disappoint, I am glad this one was the same.
I enjoyed the journey that AO and DNA went on both physically and emotionally. I loved the world and character building. I even loved the kind of open ending it had.
I usually am not a fan of open ended type of books but I think it really worked with this one since it would have likely taken another 800 pages to actually have a "resolution" lol.
Definitely would recommend this one to lovers of sci-fi for a quick well packed read!
