My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite

This fascinating debut novel by Oyinkan Braithwaite weaves a variety of themes into one simple storyline of an older sister navigating her sister’s habit of violently killing her boyfriends. The narrator balances seething jealousy and frustration, along with a deeply rooted need to protect her sister against all odds. This story is equal parts funny and disturbing, and it calls to question what we would be willing to sacrifice for family.
