A review by africanbookaddict
Our Sister Killjoy by Ama Ata Aidoo
5.0
One of the best books I’ve read this year. ‘Our Sister Killjoy’ has managed to fill the void I’ve been battling/constantly grappling with, wrt my conflicting feelings on ‘Afropolitanism’, 1st gen Americans, living abroad, assimilation, ‘the real African’, moving back to the continent & the ‘savior’ mentality the ‘been-tos’ bring, feminism, loneliness.
A LOT is explored in this short book and its fucking golden. I wish I read this earlier in my life.
I don’t know if I can even write a full review on this book, but once I let it marinate in my mind and heart, I surely will.
