They have done it again. This book is a masterpiece. It was so chaotic, yet beautiful how everything woven together. 
The multiple pov made the story more immersive. I felt for poor Machi. Please check the trigger warnings in this one. 
There's a lot to unpack. *Murder, sexual assault, transphobia, sex work, Im probably forgetting something. But, all that have transpired in the span of two days had my mouth agape. Akwaeka writes stories that leaves me speechless every time.
