I’m really enjoying this book, well as much one can enjoy a book about war, murder, repression, and lost humanity. But dang is it just one big heart break after another. I don’t even know how to process this without sobbing every time I think about this book. I’ve had to take my time with this one because it HURTS to read and I have only so many tears left before I’m out of water in my entire body…

I’m sobbing violently 😭😭 I’m not okay. 💔

“I am a descendant of Shango, the god of heat and fire. I am a living inferno. I am a dead girl walking. “

This started off with a bang and my jaw is dropped. It’s so good

“Another night, another dead body that isn’t Mama. I stop digging and stare at the young woman crumpled in the hole. Small, pale, and fragile-looking, a porcelain doll even in death. She hasn’t been dead long. A few hours perhaps, a day at most. The bullet hole in her forehead still shines with blood, dried crimson against a purple-tinged face.”

Wow now that is an amazing beginning!
