Elle’s Reviews > Aicha > Status Update

I was excited for this after other great POC uprising books this year but Aicha is a struggle. Terrible pacing - 45% is way too long for introduction, it should have been 20% max. Action finally starts around the 50% mark but I’m already too divorced from characters & story. Also very concerned over the casual misogyny & male-on-female violence that the author doesn’t care to frame as bad.
