West with the Night by Beryl Markham
2.5
adventurous tense slow-paced

Rating a little harsh for personal preference. I am not a huge fan of memoirs, books written in the past, or books written from the proprestive of British aristocrats. I thought this book might change some of those perspectives and it just didn't. Did generally like the writing style, but not the voice. Wish that she hadn't left out so much of her life. Hated the parts about elephant hunting.
