You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi

3.0

I overall enjoyed the first 2/3rds of this book but then when Feyi’s relationship starts with Alim some of the conversations they had just really took me out of the story. Like some of the things Feyi said to Alim just felt like a young person talking to an older person, like the way she spoke. I did feel like the book did a great job of showing grief and how to love again but those two getting together made sense in some aspects but other it did not. Overall went with a 3/5 and it’s a low 3 for me.
