pickThis story takes place in the Dominican Republic, 2024. There is no more life in the oceans we humans have destroyed. We start by following Acilde, a maid, who wants to be male, steal a sacred and rare anemone from her boss who happens to be a representative of a Yoruban deity. What follows is multi layered time travel story that is brash and explicit with an ecological theme throughout. This was bonkers but that last page really got me. Pick!
Centique Already on my TBR #becausetimetravel but your review would have done it! Man you are powering through the books my friend 🙌 Like some kind of book reading Popeye after swallowing a can of spinach! 😝 6y
Reggie @Centique This book feels twice as long as it‘s 132 pages, but in a good way. She really packs it in and no sentence is wasted. This one and last night‘s were short. But I‘ll take a Popeye reference any way I can get it. 😜 6y
