THIS BOOK!
You know a book is good when you can’t stop thinking about it when you aren’t reading it. This book was it for me. 

SpoilerI felt so much sadness for the family. Death after death, bad news after bad news. I had mixed emotions when Obeme and Ben were contemplating on how to kill Abulu. Cause on one hand, I can see their driving point, but on the other hand was it wasn’t the right thing to do. Still loved every part of it tho
