So good! The narration is amazing and gets the accents and words in French and other languages right so it feels real, like you're in Nigeria with the sisters. The psychology of control is so well done and so chilling, and I think the aspect of beauty used as a weapon is also an interesting take.

FAST paced, with nothing unnecessary in the telling, and a lot of nuance in the narrator and this audio narration. Loved it! ...more

This book was not at all what I was expecting. The subject matter is morbid to be sure, but there is a strange, detached feeling the whole time, and a lot more humor than I expected.

I recommend this book to anyone with a... complicated relationship with their sibling(s).
