2.5 ⭐ Set in Lagos, Nigeria, Lagoon is a blood-pumping, sci-fi, alien invasion novel that is jampacked with so much action, satire and drama that it left me feeling breathless.

I enjoyed the sci-fi elements of the story and its screenplay-like structure with all the scene jumps, the dynamism of which kept me engaged in its Nollywood-style dramedy.

But overall I was disappointed by this book because it started so well and had me truly hooked but the latter part of the story became too frenetic and completely unhinged.
