  • a fun, adventurous, (surprisingly) romantic, and resounding conclusion to a remarkably unique trilogy with a triumphant heroine who remains fierce and powerful to the end
    - the ending leaves a little bit to be desired; some questions are left unanswered/unexplained

Decent end to the trilogy.

Such a beautiful conclusion to the Binti trilogy - I loved the way this book really drew everything together and focused on the relationships that Binti builds throughout the trilogy. The characters, world, and lore are all so vibrant.

I still like the first novella best. But the story as a whole is good too.

(...years after I started the series) it is done! Maybe one day we will get more stories set in this world? Puppy eyes

I absolutely loved the first two books in this series. I wasn't that impressed with this one though. It was still decent, but I didn't care for the ending. I still think it's a great series overall.

I loved the first two novellas so much more. Unfortunately in this one Binti was too much of a Mary Sue for my taste. However it is still a highly immaginative and interesting story to follow.

A thoroughly entertaining and mind-expanding exploration of culture and the universe, and the exact perfect ending to the series.

This last book fundamentally changes Binti but though there's lots of action and plot twists, it doesn't feel as urgent as the first two. I still feel very satisfied by the conclusion, the writing was excellent, and I'll continue to think about series and it's many layers for a long time.

a weird and sometimes intense story. felt kinda uneven – some of it really resonated for me, sometimes it lost me a little. it's not even that long, but felt like i couldn't read that much of it at once. i like Binti a lot though (i mean who wouldn't)

An excellent fun read

Once again Nnedi Okorafor delivers a punchy rollicking good read. It's full of interesting twists and turns taking the reader on an adventure of discovery.
