The writing is just a leeetle more YA than I usually go for (it has to do with the first person POV + a young MC), but that’s a minor thing and entirely my own preference so I’m going to shut up now because the story is great. The love letter to Ethiopia (and likewise the Dominican Republic) is more than worth it. Plus the father-who-struggles-with-anxiety thing is something I haven’t seen represented that way and it hits close to home.

I mean, how many romances reference Frantz Fanon?
