indi_reads 's review for:

The Bite of Mango by Mariatu Kamara, Susan McClelland
3.5
emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

This seemed a little too much McClelland and not enough Mariatu Kamara, unfortunately. Mariatu's story is one of trauma and home, yet I wish this book had a more authentic and direct voice. I would love to know what the result of this book would have been if Mariatu worked solo on it, or even with a different journalist.
