Although Square Haunting was a #NFNovember pick, I never finished it. So tonight I read the chapter on Dorothy Sayers as a prelude to starting Unnatural Death. #serieslove2025

Escapism, escapism, this month.
Way behind in reviews!🤯

@Bookwormjillk #NFNovember is a wrap (yesterday)

I was able to finish 7 of my 8 titles, pretty much all of them are well worth the time. Stand outs were The Facemaker and Kolisi's book. Year of the Tiger was fantastic. The rest were very political and I am very tired at the moment on this front.

I am hanging onto Behind the Beautiful Forevers, I know it will be worth it whe I can convince myself to pick it up.

An important read for Americans. This is my last for #NFNovember (7 of 8) and my 3rd of 4 for #20in4
I learned a lot (Nixon was a Quaker? The meet your husband at the door in Saran wrap was an Evangelical idea b/c they think women are not doing enough to please their men?) a lot I knew but it was good to see in writing laid out (the fueled & imaginary idea/hatred towards Muslims)
I think this is an incredibly important read. 👇

"You are South Africa. Embrace it."
This is not the book for someone who is not a rugby (particularly a Springbok) fan. There are lots of play by plays of games and an assumption that you know the 2019/2024 team (he drops names like nobody's business not really telling you which side). Lucky me I am a massive Bok fan and was easily able to follow.
More than a rugby book though Siya takes us from his childhood poverty - going weeks living on ?
