4 ⭐ CW: Violence, sexual content, incest 

Sister Mine by Nalo Hopkinson is an sff standalone centering Caribbean storytelling. It's kind of like Trinidadian version of Percy Jackson with the demigods, but instead we get mojo and celestials. This was a weird book to say the least, but it was very different and quite enjoyable. 

We follow Makeda and her sister Abby, who were born as conjoined twins and separated at birth. Makeda and Abby are both half human and half celestial (demigod), but only Abby has any mojo. Abby's mojo gives her a singing ability. Makeda has always been told she was born without mojo. Makeda is trying to live an independent life away from her twin, and accept that she is basically claypickin (a non-magical human), even though her life is far from normal. 

When Makeda and Abby's dad goes missing, Makeda learns that she's been lied to all her life about her mojo (or lack of mojo). She also finds out the haint creature that has been after her is more than it seems as well. We meet Jimi Hendrix's enspirited guitar, which was pretty cool. The different celestial demigods were interesting to learn about. I loved the Bejis, who are twin gods that seem to be genderfluid. 

I felt like a lot happened and some stuff didn't get resolved. Like how did Brie end up with mojo when he's a claypickin. I also desperately wish there were more books to give us more from the celestials and to see the aftermath of this book. Definitely fascinating, if a bit weird.
