Speechless. This book is just so many things - thrilling, speculative, surreal.. It's disorienting to read, yet flows so well. Not to mention that the audio narrator is PHENOMENAL. You can really feel Echo's pain as she adjusts to college life and the strangeness that ensues after a university hypnotist dubs her a "Chosen One". We're able to discuss institutional racism, learned helplessness, and the importance of culture all through Echo's unique perspective. I honestly can't wait to read more books by Echo Brown.
