4.0
Soul Sisters by Lesley Lokko - 4 ⭐️
[AD-PR product]
Thank you so much to @randomthingstours for my copy and place on this book tour!
Review ⭐️ - This book completely surprised me, the contents page included quite a timeline with a number of characters and I wasn’t sure how’d it would all puzzle together but it does, and it does so well. Soul Sisters brings together Jen, Kemi and Solam in ways, I wasn’t expecting but ways that were carefully stitched together from the get go - the bond that Jen and Kemi is exactly that of sisters but with a history of mothers that are ultimately shadows but for entirely different reasons. Lesley Lokko doesn’t just bring Edinburgh and London to life throughout the pages of Soul Sisters but South Africa, by providing such an education of the history surrounding the country and the political changes that took place. Without a doubt, I didn’t just learn from reading this book but I enjoyed seeing the characters develop with every page - if you love historical fiction, this should be on your TBR.
I doubt this will be the last book I read by Lesley Lokko
