I adore Emezi's writing. This is my second read of theirs, after reading Pet, and I definitely want to pick up more.
I thought this was going to be a slow burn romance but it turned full on messy drama which I did not expect. Though I don't agree with everything Feyi does, I do love her take on how it's OK to live after loss. I loved her relationship with Joy (who was a bad ass BFF) and I'm glad she got her happy ending, even if it was a bit too insta love for me.
