I wanted to enjoy this. I tried, but dark, dystopian books are just not for me. That said, this is a captivating piece of literature. It addresses important topics such as religion, climate change, and violence while taking its place in the afrofuturist canon. If any of those appeal to you, then definitely read this book. Read if you enjoy: dystopian, climate change, religious theory, afrofuturism, the work of NK Jemisin
