I Belong Here: A Journey Along the Backbone of Britain: WINNER OF THE 2021 BOOKS ARE MY BAG READERS AWARD FOR NON-FICTION by Anita Sethi
2.0
DISCLAIMER: I received a copy of this book for free as part of Sheffield Hallam University’s Big Read campaign for the 2022/23 academic year
In all honesty, it just wasn’t for me. Maybe it’s because I’m more accustomed to being at a computer than outside (some may say I need to touch grass).
This book does mention racial and class inequality, but I felt as though it wasn’t well-integrated. It would go from a point about nature to one about inequality in a heartbeat which wasn’t quite what I expected. Maybe this is a case of managing my own expectations.
