I love that Oșun is not perfect nor does she strive to be; she simply just is—discerning, grace filled, sharp-minded power itself.
As for the story, I love that the ending captures allowing yourself to sit in romantic reverence of another without diminishing who they are or the depth of how you feel; it seems instinctual to fawn, freeze, run away, or fight, but they just sit in it. I wish this was an entire book!

The intro really resonates with me and how I view finding and being with someone who sees me, loves me, respects me, and exists in the same plane that I do.

Prediction: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️_
I want to let this serve as my intro to west African mythology, move to original tellings of these myths in a broad way, then narrow down to specific countries along side non-fiction history of those countries. I recognize the name Oșun, but I don’t know much else. Thisbe is a cut baby name; let me read her/his story first.
