I absolutely enjoy this review. I'm gonna get this book the next time I visit the store. However, your pronunciation of "Okorafor" got me rolling on the floor 🤣. Lolz. Fantastic review! I love it!

Haha, I thought I had it correct. Oh no! I was more worried about pronouncing ododo and otjize:)

This is one of my priorities for this year - I can't wait! - I will have to watch this properly once I've read it though...love the start of it. I'll check out your likes and dislikes after I've read it.

I agree with your assessment of the trilogy. This is one of the best novella trilogies I've come accross.

I have the e-book, but still haven't read it yet. I'll have to do that, and then come back to the rest of your video (stopped at 14:17 to avoid spoilers).

The only thing I've read is Noor which I felt was slightly disappointing. It was a good story and well written but I was expecting to be blown away which I guess is the danger of having high expectations. Binti sounds more interesting, though!

I could see that. I dont think she is an author to go in with the expectation she will blow you away. I just really like her tone, pace, and language. I think the only authors who consistently blow me away are Asimov and Egan

I loved Binti, but I was disappointed with Home. I still need to read the third. I'm hoping it was tie the three together.

I think the novelty of the first was so great it couldn't be recreated. I think I enjoyed the sequels just for it adding to the story. I had wished the 1st book was longer, so I feel like HOME filled that for me.
