A review by ljane44
Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi

5.0

The pain of this book is so vivid both in the hard scenes and the complications of joy. Healing from trauma is a universally hard experience and I loved seeing this perspective on what it means to grow and reckon with who you really are. I had trouble putting this book down and have absolutely loved everything by Akwaeke Emezi that I’ve read so far.
