I picked this up because I kept recommending Finna by Nino Capri to everyone on their "rec me 12 books for 2022' memes and it reminded me I had the OTHER Finna on my shelves and hadn't read it yet. This was a joyful exploration of language and identity and Black culture and Chicago and I loved dipping in and out of it as I was reading other things.

"Definition of Finna, created by the author: fin na /'fine/ contraction: (1) going to ; intending to. rooted in African American Vernacular English. (2) eye dialect spelling of "fixing to."
