Absolutely excellent YA novel from Akwaeke Emezi! Young trans teenager Jam lives in Lucille, a city that has long since purged their community of "monsters." No one can imagine such creatures returning, so it's little surprise that Jam and her family are shocked when a painting of a beast comes to life and claims to have been summoned to Lucille to hunt a monster. Worse still, the beast claims the monster lucks within in the home of Jam's best friend, Redemption. Intriguing, intoxicating, and thought-provoking.
