#martinique #readingtheamericas2023 Remarkable story of an island people and how they came to build a small place of their own, a shantytown named after the fuel tanks. It is the memories, writings and narrated stories as told to an urban planner by a woman of incredible strength. Translated from French but full of Creole dialect. A rambling, messy wonderful book.

Librarybelle Hooray!! 3d

Puri and her husband travel from Spain to #Ecuador after the death of her estranged father to claim her part of the family chocolate estate. When her husband is murdered on the trip, she assumes his identity to find the truth. This was a wonderful tale of secrets, love, and family drama. #ReadingTheAmericas2023 @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB

Librarybelle I enjoyed this one too! 5d

I listened to this book over the course of a few days, usually listening to one woman‘s story and then taking a break before listening to the next. I found some stories more interesting than others, but I don‘t know that any of them will really stay with me. I liked that it shared experiences from a variety of women in Chile.

This was a fascinating listen! I‘ve read a few books about pirates that were mainly focused on specific individuals, and I enjoyed how this described the overall crew, the changing dynamics between them, and more of daily life on a long voyage. Their journey took them across the Darien Isthmus, along the South American coast, around Cape Horn, and back north.
