5.0

This emotionally compelling novel packs a punch in just over 200 pages!! Real characters you'll love (or love to hate), a Hunt you're invested in, and questions you'll die to know the answers of. Akwaeke Emezi is a genius of our time and I will read anything they write. 

Words cannot do this novel justice. I laughed, I cried, I angry shouted. This was a ride from start to finish. If you have not read PET yet, I highly suggest you do so. Awkaeke Emezi does an amazing job at making the readers invested in this story, the characters, The Hunt. This novel is outmatched.
