𧀠βMy Sister, the Serial Killerβ by Oyinkan Braithwaite
𧀠An incredibly dark, smart, sarcastic and sardonic super-quick debut thriller.
𧀠Summary:
The book follows Korede, a Nigerian nurse, who cleans up after her sister, Ayoola, murders her boyfriends, apparently out of self-defence. Ayoola is the beautiful serial killer, and Korede, the resentful, yearning enabler. Korede never turns her sister into the police in fear of what it might do to her familyβ¦ until Ayoola starts dating a doctor Korede works with. Korede is infatuated with him, and doesnβt want to see him end up dead.
𧀠Review:
The book jumps straight into the plot, which was great and also why itβs only under 250 pages. It was a provocative, unique, mind-bending and hilarious crime story with some remarkable character-building.
I loved the riveting, fast pace and the dark sense of sarcastic humor. The book makes us question so many important things in our lives such as family, sisterhood and also social media.
Thereβs just about enough information for the readers to draw their own opinions about the characters and to form their own ideas about how the story might endβwhich, for me, wasnβt how I expected!
