Quite a whirlwind of a story. I really enjoyed the story and characters themselves. There were times I had to reread paragraphs because things moved so quickly that I didn't fully grasp what was happening. Okorafor's writing is somehow detailed while feeling incredibly condensed, especially in tense scenes where the main character is describing her experience. It's not necessarily bad, I think it's just been a while since I've read similar prose. 

Overall, an enjoyable quick read that will certainly have you reflecting the impact of corporations on the lives of everyone they "serve".
