The Zorg is the story of a little known slave ship. Because of a mistake from someone taking an r for an n, the ship became known as the Zong.

The research Siddharth Kara did on this book was impressive. The problem I had with it, was that in places it drug to me. It's a very sad story of what slaves went through when they were sold into slavery by their on people. They had to take a horrible journey across the ocean, then get bought ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read like an animal, treated as property instead of a person, and suffer tremendously. This is an important part of history, that shouldn't be forgiven. As a white person, The Zorg was very eye opening.

I'm a Day fan!
But for some reason I never knew she wrote a memoir; How?

This was just brilliant.
Her quirky, geeky self is exactly what I expected and I got so much more.
She's brutally honest about her own struggles, and gives a fun filled overview of how she became the beloved woman who inspired so many of us gamer girls.

rubyslippersreads I liked that she loves Emily of New Moon as much as I do. 6d
Enchanted_Bibliophile @rubyslippersreads I've never read Emily before - always been an Anne fan, but after this I've added it to my TBR 6d
