When I started reading "War Girls" I liked how the cyborg themes reminded me of books such as the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer, but as I continued reading the world changed shapes. I liked how Onyebuchi gave us a full image of the setting's history, by giving us the before, during, and aftermath of the war.
It was a very well written book and you can tell personal emotions and pains were written into each page.
The themes of family, love, pain, hope, change, war and PTSD were a core part of the story. I liked how as a reader you really get to experience them along with each character.
That being said the reader really gets hurtled into a war zone, quite literally. It's a painful read. Anyone reading feels the horrors as if they were being played out right in front of their eyes.
At points the story felt like it was dragging but I think that is because when one writes about themes like such it is easy to sometimes lose your reader in the chaos.
Overall, It was an eyeopening novel and written with true care.
