Twist upon twist upon twist. This book started off a bit slow and had a lot of sci-fi elements that had to be spelled out for me to comprehend but it was well worth it and all came up again to fill in the story.

A great commentary of womanhood, motherhood, Blackness, nationality, and overall power. I haven't read something like this in a while and would love to recommend to everyone. Be wary if you're not interested in gore.
