(I do not rate memoirs.)
Unfortunately, since I'm still trying to catch up on reviews, only ARCs and SCASL books will get full written reviews.

Memoir of a child refugee from Rwanda, told jumping back and forth in time. Felt a bit impersonal/emotionally removed at times.

READ THIS. That is all I have to say. I ended up picking this book up in a tiny, used book store in a small town in northern Minnesota not expecting much of it, but to this day it is one of my favorites. It is just phenomenal
