Sweeping, evocative and sumptuously told, The Hunters is a dramatic coming-of-age story, a complex portrayal of first love and family loyalty and a passionate reimagining of the Happy Valley set in all their glory and notoriety. Theo (…more)

Sorry, l can't. I tried very hard to stick to The Hunters, since the characters are well-crafted, the dialogue are nice, the writing is smooth. But no amount of lovely writing can make up for the boredom of one party after another without a hint of direction.
If there is a story, it's taking too long to shaw itself. I'm out.

Let's see if l can make a good dent in Northanger Abbey tonight.

#FirstDay of September and l'm starting my #BookAWeek challenge with this.

1920s story set in Africa. Not as uncommon as it may sound, but it's a first for me.

vkois88 Sounds like a great challenge! 7y

This is my May wrap-up! It‘s not been an amazing month, I feel like I should have read a couple more but never mind! Hopefully I‘ll read even more in June 😊My favourite read this month was probably The Hunters - it was so good. I also really loved Lore: Wicked Mortals and Should You Ask Me!

I absolutely loved this book which follows fourteen year old Theo as he moves from Scotland to colonial Kenya in the 1920s. He is infatuated with the glamorous ‘Happy Valley‘ set of rich expats, however slowly begins to see the darkness beneath their idealistic lifestyle. It is such an evocative novel with fascinating characters. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
