A review by dandelionsteph
Abeni's Song by P. Djèlí Clark

Did not finish book. Stopped at 5%.
It started out strong, but it turns out it was just a prophetic dream. When the protagonist flicks back to the present, her day is pretty boring (up until Page 17, at least). I particularly disliked the romance element later on. It felt like there was too much showing-not-telling, and the "women's secrets" mentions felt vaguely unsettling.
The text formatting felt odd, like the text formatting of a pocket Bible.
