Reading about the Congo whilst in -23 temps in Finland is peculiar!

A disturbing but honest book

Although I enjoyed this book, I might have expected too much. Overall I felt the book lacked some historical significance in terms of the atrocities that took place in the Congo.
It is still a very enjoyable read.

Book #26 of the year: “Everfair” by Nisi Shawl

I didn‘t like it 😕 I really wanted to, but it was hard to get into the story, the timeline was weird, and there wasn‘t much character development. I‘d say skip this one.

This was such a wild ride (as the authors books usually are). The evidence was pointed at so many people. So many twists and turns.

Almost at the border to Congo. Two tourists and a guide was killed by terrorists and there‘s pretty much no one around, except security forces. Super weird things happening. Rebels trying to overthrow the government. The rebels recite students. One got caught, and he‘s in a torture chamber now, never to be seen.

Bookwormjillk I hope this happened in the book not on your trip! 5mo
