When We Were Birds by Ayanna Lloyd Banwo

challenging dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated

3.5

I'm embarrassed to admit it took me an ridiculous time to get into the story. I don't blame anything but my stupid brain. The writing was easy to follow but the magic realism really threw me off at the beginning.
