A review by persnickety_9
Daughters of Nri by Reni K. Amayo

3.0

I really wanted to love this book, but that didn’t happen. It’s basically 320 pages of plotting slowly (but no real feeling of tension) and then the last 15 pages everything happens and then the last page and it’s this super anti-climactic ending. The world built here, including African elements, was really cool! You don’t see that often, so I really enjoyed reading that aspect of it. Unfortunately this book just didn’t live up to its potential. Characters were kind of undeveloped, and the inclusion of that completely unnecessary romance was annoying.
