Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.

London, 1978. Yamaye, a woman in her 20s unsure of who she is, but with dreams of being a DJ and MC. Yamaye lives for the weekend, when she can go raving with her friends at The Crypt, an underground club in the industrial town on the outskirts of London where she was born and raised.

Everything changes when she falls deeply in love with Moose: he offers the chance of freedom and change. When their relationship is cut brutally short, Yamaye goes on a dramatic journey of transformation that takes her first to Bristol, where she gets caught up in a criminal gang, and then to Jamaica, where past and present collide with devastating consequences.

I thought the narration added to the atmosphere of the book , and helped capture the mood of the story. Much of the story resonates with what I understand to be the experiences of many black people living in in the UK and I particularly enjoyed the focus on girl power. Overall I enjoyed the book and the characterisation. I especially liked the lyrical place descriptions which I thought were very good
