So engrossing and lovely. The author really captured the quiet and chaotic impact on identity and emotional intelligence from growing up in a home with domestic violence + the resulting struggles to parent one’s own kids while reparenting oneself.

Review for the duology —
📚 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 — Epic YA fantasy rooted in African storytelling — with all kinds of representation, a range of diverse characters (race, class, gender, sexuality), and a totally riveting plot. Jordan Ifueko did some beautiful world-building and created complex characters you’ll care about. Includes themes of identity, justice, resilience, developing and honoring one’s moral compass, resistance against colonizers and the 1%, and found family. 💓
