Binti by Nnedi OkoraforMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Binti is an interesting novella. It starts out as one thing as Binti leaves home and travels to Oomza University. Binti's people do not travel and she was expected to turn down the opportunity to go after she was accepted. Then the story changes as Binti is the only survivor of an attack by the Meduse. A lot in incorporated in this 90 page novella. There is danger, tension, and changes as Binti works to stay alive and bring peace where there was none.
