Author Tomi Adeyemi said that she will not be posting anything about the upcoming adaptation of her novel ‘Children of Blood and Bone’ for reasons unknown and that she won’t be watching it.
She also posted a screenshot of a conversation of herself with the lead star Amandla Stenberg where she responded to Stenberg’s attempt to reconnect with “Do not ever use my name in an interview or video again. Do not text me. Do not call me.” before blocking her.
