I own so much of Emezi‘s work, I find it fascinating they can switch so seamlessly between genres.
I really enjoyed this one, it‘s about the seedy underbelly of New Lagos - so much sex and violence. It‘s definitely not for everyone but after reading the SA Crosby for #camplitsy and loving it, I think I have to admit to myself that I enjoy reading violent books 😂
Switches between characters for each chapter so you get different POVs.
I really have to stop just buying books. This Emezi book is NOT for me. I normally love their work but I am only about 30 pages in and I hate everything about it. There is a lot of sexual abuse going on. I think it could have worked if there was more of a lead in but I just feel gross reading it.

pickI liked this story! It was a trip into a world I have no idea about, loved the writing and characters.
pickAnother book I read during my summer vacation
Aima and Kalu has just broken up, and Kalu has driven Aima to the airport so she can get back to London. Aima changes her mind and contacts a friend. Kalu contacts his best friend. They‘re all in for a weekend that will change them for ever. For Lagos isn‘t what it seem, when you start scratching, it‘s full of sex parties, blackmail, cover ups and murder.
Delayed post but here‘s what I got from the Brooklyn Book Festival! Two free books (the poet X and the sweetest fruits), one indigenous (birdie), one in translation (exposed) and one from an author I want to read everything by (Little rot)!
Going away this weekend so hopefully I get through some books! I‘ve got The Sweetest fruits and my kindle with me. 😊
