A review by janeleng
Binti by Nnedi Okorafor

3.0

I mean for my three star rating of this book to be a huge compliment to the author. It's a novella, so obviously it's short, but I felt that the form of the story detracted from the Okorafor's stellar writing (no pun intended). There was so much more that I wanted to know--about the world(s), about the characters, about the science the underlies so much of the story. Binti is hugely imaginative, but packed into such a small amount of space that it made certain aspects of the story seem stunted and underdeveloped.

I'm hoping that this is something that will be remedied as I continue the rest of the series.
