Somadina by Akwaeke Emezi
4.0
adventurous challenging dark medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Emezi does not miss!! Even her YA books are so stellar for any reader. They do such a great job taking you on a journey both through the plot and the characters themselves. This book was no exception and I loved Somadinas self exploration and growth within her community, the power and magic system, and the gods and how they play in the world.
