A review by lesejaguar
Der Tod des Vivek Oji by Akwaeke Emezi

challenging dark emotional tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

Definitely not a feel good book. It took me some time to get used to the writing which is very graphic. Thought more than once about quitting. 
I really liked the change of perspectives though and the secrets & hints given about the turn of events are well placed.
