Who Fears Death by Nnedi Okorafor
1.0

Painful slog. How can there be literally no growth in the “heroic” main character over 400 pages?!?! How many brutal rape scenes can be vividly described (not to mention female genital mutilation)??? And don’t get me started on the narrator. I love magical realism but this was like crawling through glass. I’m sorry I didn’t quit halfway through.
