Noor

3.5 stars

This was my first time reading an Africanfuturist plot line and it was very intriguing. This short story spans a wide range of topics including race, class, ableism, AI/technology advancements, government control, monopolies, and climate change. I found AO particularly interesting because of the discussion surrounding her choice to change/augment her body and how that was viewed in society.

Délé Ogundiran did a great job with the narration, and look forward to hearing more from her.

Even though I felt a bit lost at times with the storytelling in NOOR this was a great intro to the genre. I'm very interested in reading more from Nnedi Okorafor since I've heard wonderful things about her other books.

***Thank you to RB Media for providing me with a copy of the audiobook for free via NetGalley for an unbiased review.
