Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi

dark sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

I preferred the author's memoir instead. This is auto fiction but it has none of the triumph of the memoir, only the most upsetting depressing content.
