The Girl Who Smiled Beads: A Story of War and What Comes After by Clemantine Wamariya

4.0

I the end I wound up loving this book. In the beginning I was struggling with it. Not because it was a bad story, not at all but I found myself getting frustrated with the past and present, back and forth. I got mad at Claire most of the book. I have so many questions. I felt like I learned a lot but I wanted to know more about the family. Like the last couple chapters I felt was rushed but all of a sudden it seemed like it started to really capture my attention.
I suck at reviews when it comes to writing about a book.
Overall, I recommend this book. I sadly do not know much about the genocide that took place and I was old enough to understand and now I want to learn more.
