All that said, I absolutely LOVED this book!!!
The writing and pacing was really well done and I liked reading about the magic system. The character and world development was on point!
I looked for anything else by Akwaeke Emezi and added them to my TBR.
I rarely write full reviews so I mean it when I say it was really a great book!
