A review by peripetia
Zoo City by Lauren Beukes

adventurous dark mysterious reflective medium-paced

4.5

I really enjoyed this book. It's unique, it's interesting, I liked how it was written, and although some say in their reviews that the plot is weak, I liked it. I didn't have a problem with it, but I get the critique.

Good urban fantasy is hard to come by, and it's a genre that I like in general. The South African setting was a nice change of scenery as well.

The book also discusses different difficult themes from class to drug addiction. Definitely would recommend.

P.S. started th book as audio and I did not like the narrator. Or, to be fair, I don't think he voice suited the character, so I switched to physical. This was a good idea because I would have missed a lot of the language.
