Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé

4.0

Having heard such good things about this book before I took a break from reading and reviewing, I decided on a whim to purchase it. I’m glad I did.

I totally understand the hype this book has received. It kept me hooked throughout and whilst I feel the ending could of been a little better, I wasn’t disappointed.

It was such an unsettling, atmospheric and at times brutal read.
I definitely recommend checking out the trigger warnings for this book though before going in as it deals with quite a number of distressing issues.

A very good debut - can’t wait to see what the author writes next, I may just have to invest!
