I tried to read this book last year but hibernated it. Tried again tonight but ended up skimming to the end. Should have bailed but it fulfils lots of prompts! 2 🌟

It took me too long to read this book. It‘s a good one though. Coming of age partly in the tin shacks of #Zimbabwe and then living with an aunt in Michigan, life couldn‘t have changed more for Darling. Fleeing Mugabe‘s chaos she becomes an illegal immigrant who sharply observes all prejudices and misconceptions she faces daily.

Cinfhen Yay!!! Lovely photo 😍and book sounds good! It‘s been on my TBR for a long time but I was told it‘s a heavy read. 3y
BarbaraBB @Cinfhen It‘s not a heavy read. It touches lightly and with humor on heavy subjects! 3y
Cinfhen Ok 👍🏽 good to know 3y

BarbaraJean This one has been on my TBR shelves for quite some time! Like @Cinfhen it‘s struck me as a heavier read—thanks for your review and description of it to counter that impression! Definitely need to put it higher in the pile. 😏 3y
BarbaraBB @BarbaraJean I hope you‘ll get to it, it really is quite engaging! 3y
Librarybelle I love how the mural colors match the colors of the book cover! 3y
