I love Nnedi Okorafor so I was very excited to get an ARC of this.

I think this will appeal to a lot of young readers–I love the American pop culture references combined with the specificity of being grounded in Nigerian culture. However for me, I didn't love it the way I've loved some of her other works–but I'm not exactly the target audience. It's an enjoyable middle grade adventure and I think this will be great for some younger readers who have struggled to find books they can connect to.
