Welcome to Litsy!

I typically love books with a Ghana setting/plot. I struggled with this one.

The first of my books from last week‘s push to #blackoutbestsellerlist/ #shopblackbookstores arrived today. 😍 I love #bookmail.

February‘s reading summary, a good mix!The favorite was Voices From Chernobyl! #February2020 #Februaryreadinglist

I am looking forward to this book that has been on my shelf for some time. Good start to the week!

I'm not really one for family stories, therefore it's only a so-so for me. The book tells us how a family can fall apart and what it all takes to come back together. I was happy for the characters in the end, they deserve to be happy again.

I started my final read for June today

I loved this book! I‘m surprised I haven‘t seen/heard about this book more. I loved the unconventional structure; it mirrored the narrative perfectly.

Loved this! Structure was a little quirky but was still able to go with the story.

Just starting this one. #ghanamustgo #taiyeselasi #africanfabric #africanprint #africanwriters #bookstagram #librarybook

Oops, went to the library to pick up one hold and may have borrowed a few more than I meant to. I might have also gone into a charity shop first and bought some book. Quite a few #ownvoices here suitable for #diverseathon. Very happy with this #bookhaul

No sleep tonight thanks to this gem. I'm a sucker lately for family sagas. #ghanamustgo

Just got this, about to tuck myself in with warm coffee 😊😊😊

An excellent #bookhaul from the mothership aka Powell's. With my trade-in credit, this was just under $25 out of pocket. A great day! Five of these are Litsy recommendations, the rest spontaneous grabs.

Found this to be a vivid and imaginative story. Selasi's detailed writing draws you in and captivates. The story is nuanced and allows the reader to do some of the figuring out, which is satisfying. There are a lot of hidden gems and insights in this book.
