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

4.0

4.5 stars

Memoir of a woman who escaped the Rwandan genocide at 6 with just her 14 year old sister and their survival - across refugee camps, across countries, and how to overcome these scars that last forever. They were so young and it’s heartbreaking to hear this loss of childhood and family. But it’s an important listen/read.
