Remote Control by Nnedi Okorafor
I first read this book about three years ago, and I remember how vividly its imagery stayed with me. The color green, in particular, lingered in my mind's eye long after I finished reading.
Rereading it over the past few days was an even better experience. My interest and fascination with the story haven't faded one bit.
The main character is a young girl whose life takes a drastic turn after encountering an alien seed. It's a magical yet deeply human story, especially when you consider how many people in this world have had their lives permanently changed by a single, inexplicable encounter that altered the course of their fate.
Thoroughly enjoyed this one. On to the next!
Binti: Home by Nnedi Okorafor
Ah, Binti: Home, book two in the trilogy. Sigh! What can I really say beyond the fact that reading this one was such an immersive experience? Every time I had to step away to attend to other things, the pull to get back to reading as soon as possible was so strong.
I especially loved how Nnedi Okorafor stepped away from conventional chapters with this one. The main character's struggle with the different layers of her emerging identities felt so... authentic. In fact, I gave her a name, OKALA NAATO, like the Afa code, not Okala Naabo, because by the time we get to the end of the book, there are more than two selves pulling at her, each demanding to be acknowledged.
As I've said before, Nnedi Okorafor's worldbuilding abilities are those of a master storyteller. The way she brings these worlds, cultures, and experiences to life is something I deeply appreciate.
I'm eager to get into the final book in the trilogy.
On to the next!

The Igbo-Caribbean Reconnection Team made a powerful pilgrimage to the home of a legend, King Jaja of Opobo, the King Who Never Bowed. King Jaja wasn’t just royalty; he was a freedom fighter. He stood so firmly against colonial masters that they had to kidnap him just to break his influence. Jaja died in the Canary Islands while fighting to return to the soil he loved. Today, his legacy lives on as a symbol of Igbo strength and defiance.

One lady asked why, when you want to marry an Igbo woman, you must follow her to her hometown, no matter where you are in the world!
Had to explain it to her

Behold the Warrior! With the Ite Igbo resting upon his head He carries more than tradition; He carries the memory of the dead. Drums may sound, warriors may dance, But beneath the spectacle Lives a history that commands reverence. This is Ohafia. Where the past never truly passes
