This combines the three Binti novellas with a new story.  We get to watch how Binti comes to embrace the new parts of herself.

Profoundly weird and fun, but also unflinching and painful. A trippy book with a profound message.

This series started off strong but really left me wanting more depth by the end of it, and the pacing felt odd to me as well. I really enjoyed Okorafor’s Remote Control, but the Binti trilogy didn’t capture my attention in the same way.
