Review previously placed on my blog:
I have read The city we became by N.K. Jemisin. This is the first book in The great cities series (duology? trilogy?). I read a copy from the library. Read this for a buddy read and read this for my Authors TBR. This is an adult contemporary fantasy book.
This book is very complex, but I love that about it. The writing is really beautiful. The concept is very cool and very thought provoking. I did think this could have been a standalone, so therefore not the full five stars from me.
