An important book in South African literature. It‘s an easy and entertaining read. Hard to believe it‘s from the 40s - before apartheid and still so accurate 🤷🏼

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lawrence Anthony details his struggle to save the last northern white rhinos.

Wonderfully written, albeit a hard read especially because rhinos are my favorite animal.

123/357

Butterfinger I may be opening a can of worms, but I wish these were the animals to be cloned. The more recently extinct. The animals that my grandchildren won't see in nature. 3w

Another week of books I‘ve never heard of, books on my TBR, and books by authors I‘ve read but not that book. Here are the 3/100 that I‘ve read. 😮
1. Things Fall Apart (very sad)
2. To Kill a Mockingbird ❤️
3. The Leopard (read in school but I couldn‘t tell you one thing about it) #TLT

#JuneSpecials Day 2: This book features the village of Tos, in the remote hills of the Cameroons. In the introduction of the author, she described it as “isolated, with no paved roads closer to it than a full eight hours away. None but the most adventurous visitor would dare risk the steep and bumpy, rocky clay paths leading to the thatch-roofed village that clings to the side of an almost extinct volcano.” My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-Ut

Preparing for a 1-2 week long sick leave. Also have 5 books from NetGalley. Do you think this is enough? 🫣

Ruthiella You might need a couple more! 😂 1mo

As I am a white person educated in white schools, it should come as no surprise that I‘ve never heard of Diop until this morning. Was glad to find some of his works at the library.
