The stories in the middle of the anthology are insanely more exciting than the first three. I wish they changed up the order of stories a little differently, because the introducing stories unfortunately were predictable and a bit eh. So it was hard to stay excited to keep reading at first

I'm enjoying listening as I drive but the stories are a little predictable. I appreciate that the black women in this anthology are not disposable, but truthfully the knowledge that the main characters lives aren't really in danger takes the scare factor away. Each short story's issue is resolved at the end and takes away from the suspense. So far at least

I'm glad I waited to read this until now

I been eating this book up. Love you Akwaeke

Definitely is making me look at what is and what isn't "intimacy".

Listening while I hike The Appalachian Mountains. New bible

Sigh

I'm marking this book uppppp

This authors use of imagery is insane

This book is reading me to filth

"Violence is nurturance turned backwards"

I love June Jordan. Sometimes she doesn't make any sense to me but I love that about her because you can tell it makes perfect sense to her. And there are times where she's speaking so clearly and loudly and explicitly that you have no choice but to understand

I see what's going on here

"All men are enemies. All animals are comrades". If I could type out Major's entire speech I would. We're barely into the book and that was insane

"No doubt the Russians who voted in 1990 did not think that this would be the last free and fair election in their country's history, which thus far, it has been. Any election can be the last. Or at least the last in the lifetime of the person casting the vote"

Guys the words are all provided for you pick up the book!!!!!
