A review by drridareads
Binti by Nnedi Okorafor

2.0

This was a pretty short read. While I do like short books this was way short.
What upsets me is the most is that it had so much potential. The world building was absolutely amazing.
I personally did not connect to this book at all. I felt absolutely nothing. I honestly don't even know why anyone besides Binti were even given names they could've easily been refered to as "friends" or something.

Spoiler

I tried to remember those names when they first showed but then oh well they all just died. I felt like there was no charactet development, not even for Okwu.
I also feel like the part where she's starving could've been elaborated (besides many other parts) to make the reader feel something
Everything resolves so freaking easily.

I guess if everything were was a little more developed and if there were some actual failures by Binti, I would've enjoyed this a whole lot more.
