Akata Witch

Short Review: This is a young adult magical realism tinged fantasy book. I have read a couple of Okorafor's books in the last 18 months or so and I have really enjoyed them. She is great at world building and characters. I think this one was a little weak in plot. The climax was way too quick. But the book was worth reading and there is now a second book in the series, although it was not published until six years after this one. I think I will wait until the audiobook for Akata Warrior comes out to read that one. The audiobook of this was excellent.
