Sister Deborah is a healer and prophetess in an early 20th c. African-American charismatic cult that traveled to Rwanda to await the Second Coming. She could well be the “reincarnation“ of a famous queen and witch. We explore her life and others' through 2 POVs. The author based her novel on local history, mythology and stories, so that's another rabbit-hole to fall into. BTW, I loved the ending!

TheKidUpstairs Ooh, sounds good. Stacking! I really liked 3w
Dilara @TheKidUpstairs So did I! I hope you like Sister Deborah too. As far as I know, the English translation isn't out yet (the title is deceiving!) but it's probably just a matter of time - the book has already been translated into half a dozen languages 😁 3w
