The Black Queen by Jumata Emil was such an engaging mystery that kept me on edge the entire time! I was constantly guessing who was behind the murder, and every time I thought I had it figured out, I was wrong. This one gave me Tiffany D. Jackson vibes, the way Emil weaves in themes of racism, privilege, and social injustice alongside a twisty, suspenseful plot was so well done. For a debut, the writing was sharp, emotional, and powerful. Beautifully written, relevant, and fast paced. I can’t wait to read more from Jumata Emil.
