Overall, I enjoyed this debut novel. The premise of the story was simple yet bold and intriguing - what does it mean to be Black in a world without White people? What makes a person Black, White or other? Is Black a phenotypic description or something deeper? I appreciated how the plot explored these concepts and more, particularly how racism and white supremacy can infect your psyche and push you to practice it in the absence of oppression. It also beautifully displayed the power of unity without requiring uniformity (word to Audre Lorde). 

Unfortunately, some of the story got lost in the convoluted, flowery descriptions and some plotlines could have been better explored. The ending seemed unfinished - not like a cliff hanger, but like the author had a deadline to meet and rushed to throw something together.  Overall though, great read that I couldn't put down! Looking forward to what Cebo Campbell gives us next.
