“Chukwu has written an extraordinary coming-of-age novel, with a fascinating protagonist and a tone that is just right for her material. The book’s dark atmosphere is enhanced by the presence of the author's own black-and-white illustrations. The result is a tour de force.” — Booklist

“Formidable . . . powerful. This blistering anthem brims with rage and hope.” Publishers Weekly
