Basking in Books | Book Review: Freshwater @BaskinginBooks | Uploaded February 2018 | Updated October 2024, 22 hours ago.
Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi made me think quite a bit and I'm not sure I do the text justice. Hopefully between the interview and the additional reviews below, you'll want to get this book!

Also, I'm sorry for saying Azelia rather than Acacia....
