Beasts of Prey by Ayana Gray
5.0
4.5/5 stars
I really enjoyed this book! I did have to put it down a bit because this is one that requires attention to detail and my neurodivergent can’t always handle that. I put the book down so as to make sure I was giving this book a fair review. When I did picked this book back up, I was pleasantly surprised at how wonderful and engaging the writing style and world building was. The author is clearly talented!
Beast of Prey is a dual POV story done well. We follow Koffi and Ekon both of which are fighting for different things. Koffi to be free and Ekon to become a son of the six. However, they come together in pursue of a seemingly mutual outcome.
What I liked:
The world building is amazing
All the characters were well developed
I loved reading an own voice book that wasn’t centered in trauma and pain.
The story telling was engaging
What I didn’t like:
Some parts were hard to follow
Overall I loved this book! I’m excited to know that books like this are being made for the younger generations. I needed more of this as a child and now reading them as an adult is definitely healing my inner child! Can’t wait to read the second book!
