I agree it is a very good book and well worth reading.
It took be a minute to figure out you were talking about Beasts of No Nation.
I have not seen the movie as for me the book is always better but I have heard good things about this movie - so maybe.
8:27 AM CT - Drinking a cup of coffee trying to motivate myself to write a couple of book reviews. But the sunny weather is really calling to me after a week of rain. :)

Autocorrect on this stupid phone lol. Yes Beast of no Nation. And the movie (what I saw) was excellent. Whoever did that one should have no Half of a Yellow Sun.

Happy birthday, Kisha!I'm at home, finishing late breakfast before continuing to declutter my abode by hauling unused stuff to the Sally Ann.
Belated happy birthday Kisha. Today is my brother's birthday and I'm waiting for my turn at facetime (he's in Japan, I in London)
Happy birthday, Kisha! Hope you had a good one.

It is 9;12 AM Central Time and I am about to begin a reading marathon for this holiday weekend.
It's 4:35 PM Eastern Time and I'm in the library (one of my favorite writing zones for some odd reason) and I'm about to begin the next chapter of a novel I'm working on. It's been different for this novel because I'm consciously doing something I always thought I did but didn't. This story requires me to think outside the box and attempt to remain there. Can't lie though.... it's really been fun!
730 am Pacific. Finishing morning toilette before yoga then Saturday chores. Started a new book, H is for Hawk by Helen MacDonald.
2028 GMTgiggling geekily to myself after helping to test a shell script that makes Linux systems easy to install on my recalcitrant laptop!

I enjoyed his early books more, I admit.

2:49 PM CT - I am looking at a pile of books calling my attention. To help pare down the list I tried a "trick" from a friend she calls "speed dating". You quickly read the beginning to see if the book is your cup of tea. But, so far this time around - I have not eliminated any books.
