Book Review: Who Fears Death.

WHO FEARS DEATH BY NNEDI OKORAFOR.

It took me time to finish this cos, I was caught up with studies and when I was done, the weather over here refuse to let me take photos.
So I had pretty funny, annoying and interesting experience while reading this book.
First it was with a gentleman, who tried to start a conversation with me in a public transport. He started with my pizza, then he moved to the book I was reading saying "I know this lady Nnedi. She was the one who did a book lunching in Enugu, that she even invited me to the book lunch but I wasn't able to make it because of work".
Guyssss!!! you need to see my facial expression and mood. I was like wtfff.
The same gentleman started talking about him been a reader and I asked him the books he has read and his favs.
He couldn't give me a reasonable book rather he talked about just two motivational authors of which I remembered the name of one for him.
He further talked about him writing a book and had to stop because someone published a book in America with the same title. Now I was mad and I stopped replying him even when he kept talking.
Second experience was meeting a lady for the first time at Uniabuja which we talked about books!!! (thanks to this book). Though she wasn't a fan of Nigeria literature because of the style of writing and how she preferred Ghanaian literature.
📖
This book is about Onyesonwu (An Esu and also Eshu whom girl with powerful magical abilities from a post-apocalyptic Africa).
She embarked on a journey that caused her to grapple with nature, history, tradition and mysteries of her culture.
It's a fantasy novel I enjoyed because I remembered I was currently reading 'And the mountain echoed' but it wasn't just flowing when I picked this.
I felt melancholy seeing the female genital mutiliation, rape and the patriarchal nature of education the girls went through.
It's a book that worth it.
📖
So I think I would be cutting down on my reading of literature books because I can't get to balance it with academic reading. When I try, it ends up with literature having the most time.
But if you have a suggestion or help on this, please am open to it.
