& This Is How to Stay Alive (by Shingai Njeri Kagunda)

This won Best Novella in 2022 in the Ignyte awards, and thus qualifies for the category "read any book from the Ignyte awards shortlist/longlist/winner list."

It is a novella about a woman in Nairobi whose brother dies by suicide, and her efforts to travel back in time and save him. I think I made a mistake in not reading this all in one shot, since I didn't appreciate it nearly as much as others did. I was left feeling confused and wishing for more. Part of it may have been the novella format but most of it I think it was me failing as a reader. 

If I get a chance before the end of the year, I may try and read it again.
