Review

Joy Oladokun feels as if she’s fully embraced herself on Observations From a Crowded Room. It’s not that her previous work hasn’t been vulnerable, or that she hasn’t been thoughtful and frank in her interviews, but Observations embraces a refreshing honesty — one that is blunt and painful, but also liberating and emancipating.
