This was a wild ride and I'm still not entirely sure what I read, it was good though. Emezi's prose is raw and real while also having a dreamlike quality so I would absolutely recommend this book even if it was just for that aspect.

For the ace/sex-repulsed in the room: there's a lot of sex here and you can't avoid it without missing chunks of the story (it's not what I would call erotica though), the writing style didn't make it feel as icky as something that sex heavy normally would for me.
