The Night Masquerade by Nnedi Okorafor

4.0

A wonderful conclusion to this trilogy of novellas! This is Binti’s story, and what I love about how it concludes is there are conflicts and politics that are surrounding this story, but the author never gets lost in that. This is Binti’s story, and Binti’s core identity undergoes transformations each novella. I love how this story concludes, and it’s not a clean cut ending, but there is heart and hurt and flawesome person at the core of this story. All the favorite characters from the previous stories return and the big cliffhanger is explored in a way with twists and turns you may not expect. Definitely read all of the Binti books, The Night Masquerade wraps it up nicely. And am curious if the author will ever return to this universe, in knowing Binti takes place after Lagoon and LaGuardia.
