I LOVE this group! Great to see so much African reading going on.

For those who have Mali on their list, may I be so bold as to suggest Toubab Tales? Toubab Tales: The Joys and Trials of Expat Life in Africa

I don't think there's a more current, more vivid account of the country as a whole out there. Hope you enjoy the read!
