Dammmmmm Mary killed him. To be honest I kind of imagined him to be a tyrant forever. These strong female characters in tiny bodies are not to be underestimated! Also I think that Emma was okay with the idea of dying because she knew Doro couldn't hurt any her/her children anymore and that was really what was keeping her going. Now onto Clay's Ark!

Sick in bed all day wishing Anyanwu would swoop out of the pages and make me better. Also glad that she's fed up of Doro.

To be honest I don't really care about the non-Jamaican story lines here, as important as the politics are to this story.

Meeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh! I really don't really see it for this to be honest. It makes me think of Smith's "White Teeth", and that's not a good thing. I guess this is the other (wutless) side of the coin to say Selvon's "The Lonely Londoners".

Funny. Lots of tongue and cheek. Reading it back and forth with the original version for little bits lost between the French to English translation.

Sometimes I look at the reviews on here and wish I could just block out some of them. Like, can goodreads please ask you to list your race and socio-economic status so I can get rid of all the reviews from white people and people who've never lived in poverty? Some of you just make me so so so very sick.

I put this down from when I originally got it, but I've picked it up again in my last dash at my reading challenge.

Okay...I understand WHAT I'm reading, but I don't get where we're going with this. I'm confused really.

I know I only just started but I really do feel like I'm missing something here. What am I missing? I understand what I'm reading now doubt...but where is this going? Maybe I've been reading too much fiction...

Mostly humorous, or darkly humorous. Violence against women, not humorous. The poetry was better...

I've been reading this since the beginning of June when I started my yoga challenge and I'm still not done yet. Considering I could have read this in a day or two, that goes to show you how much you should pace yourself with this one. It's not the destination, it's the journey and all of that.

Think "Never Let Me Go" meets "World War Z". Absolutely loving it right now.

Well, I'm definitely not saying I'm a Murakami expert (even though I do basically have a shrine), but I definitely see where he's going with this one. It's not completely obvious, but I see us going down the same path as the others. However I am surprised we've gotten this far without any special ears or cats.
