Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé

5.0

This book was absolutely AMAZING on every level. Ms. Abike-Iyimide has taken the YA fiction genre to a whole new level with this novel. The story drew me in almost immediately and I found myself making a mental list of “suspects” and trying to uncover their motives. There was NO predictability with this book, which, in this day and age is almost unheard of. I was fully vested in knowing what happened to Chiamaka and Devon, along with their friends and associates. I love how the crescendo towards the ending gradually increased throughout the course of the book and then when it got to the end it was literally EXPLOSIVE! I will be recommending this book to any and all because it, in my opinion, is a MUST read!!
