Midnight Robber by Nalo Hopkinson

dark mysterious sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.5

This is my first Nalo Hopskinson book and certainly won't be the last. This was a compelling narrative based around our main character, Tan Tan, who is the daughter of a political official, named Anthony. They go from living good in the Caribbean planet of Toussaint, to being thrust into the wild and brutal world called New Half Way Tree. 

In this new setting, Tan-Tan has to navigate different species and people, along with dealing with her own traumatic experiences after being abused by her father twice.
