The City We Became

It may seem like it took me forever to read this, but it's because I bought it and my library books were due back quickly, so I put it on hold until now.
It's excellent. Is there anyone else in this world with an imagination as big as N.K. Jemisin's? I think not. I broke my own rule about not reading the first in a series because I love her work so very much. This one is outstandingly fun. The battles are amazing The characters are kick-ass. It will be a looooong wait for the next installment, I'm sure. I'm a little bummed that I didn't get to meet her at an event in March, but I probably just would have squeed in total fangirl mode about how much I love her work at her anyway.
I loved every minute of The City and can't wait for more.
Love from Jersey.
