This novel in a span of 3 hours had so much heartache, passion, first love, tragedy, emotion and everything in-between. But that plot twist at the end completely shook my world and felt bittersweet. Moth is such a loving character whom I wanted to encase in a protective bubble. I adore both her and Sani's relationship.

I always knew that I loved prose, but I never knew how much I loved it until I read Me (Moth). This book did something that I've never seen before: it took a story and made it feel like a song. Or maybe it took a poem and made it feel like a river - something I had to navigate my way through rather than just reading a line and moving on. All I know is that I'm so glad that I started my year by reading this book.
When I spontaneously picked this up at a local coffee shop, the barista told me that I was making a wonderful decision. That while she preferred non-fiction on most occasions, after reading this book, she's predicting it will be considered an American classic in the future. I believe that if enough people get their hands on this beautiful book, her predictions could come true. So this is me screaming it from the rooftops: PLEASE READ THIS BOOK.
It's not an easy read, but don't let that deter you. It might make you cry (it made me cry), but it's so worth it. You may even be a little bit confused at times, but it does all make sense by the end - and I can almost guarantee that the moment you close it, you'll want to pick it back up again. That's what happened to me.
Me (Moth) is the kind of book that makes you want to get a second, third, and fourth copy to annotate with your thoughts before giving it to your friends (or placing one in each room in the house just to look back on - or cry over - at a later time).
I'd like to just give a long and loud round of applause to the author for producing something so breathtaking. Thank you for this masterpiece.
