Very enticing title, but don't go into this thinking it's a thriller. Much more of a drama that centers around family dynamics. It's about the relationship between 2 sisters. If you grew up with a younger sister, I think this will hit a bit more for you. Also, I highly reccomend the audiobook. The narrator's voice is beautiful and she brought life to the Nigerian accent that my internal thoughts never could.
My Sister, the Serial Killer is a sharp, engaging novel that explores the complicated bond between two sisters. Korede is practical and dependable, while Ayoola is charismatic and impulsive, creating a tense and compelling dynamic. Braithwaite balances dark humor with unsettling moments, keeping the story fast-paced and absorbing. The book also raises thoughtful questions about loyalty and the lengths we go to for family, even when those choices are morally unclear. I think the author could have done a bit more with this, but all in all I found this to be an enjoyable read.
Very easy read, a few unexplored plots or threads that left me wishing more out of the story, but overall I enjoyed my time with it. I can see the writer's potential in this book and I am interested to see more.
Fast-paced and darkly funny, My Sister, the Serial Killer has a killer premise and sharp writing, but doesn’t quite live up to its full potential. The sibling dynamic is compelling, but the story feels a bit thin and repetitive by the end. It’s entertaining, for sure—but not especially memorable. A stylish read that could’ve used a bit more substance.
