Black Mamba Boy by Nadifa Mohamed

2.0

This book was disappointing as the author used foreign words and expressions without giving the reader enough information to put them into context. Even a glossary would help. Also it would have been helpful if she provided a map to help us place where the boy was traveling. Overall I thought the topic was interesting, but spent so much time backtracking to see if I could fill in the gaps she left, so I eventually stopped reading it.
