Its’s a #readroserepeat kind of a Friday🌹🍷[#partner @randomhouse] I’m buddy reading #ImboloMbue’s second novel (on sale 6.16.20) with Chelsea over at @suspensethrill! I’m about 75 pages in and I already know this will be one of my favorite reads. You can’t help but it think of the water crisis in Flint, Michigan, the BP oil spill and so many other atrocities. HOW BEAUTIFUL WE WERE is the story of “what happens when the residents of a fictional African village named Kosawa decide to rise up and fight back against an American oil company that has been polluting their land. Spanning forty years, it follows a generation of children growing up in this village, and what happens to them as they watch their parents fight the oil company, and when they themselves take up the fight.” I don’t know about you but this book was one of my most anticipated reads of 2020. Super thankful to the amazing folks @randomhouse for sending it my way 🖤 What are y’all reading? I hope you are doing ok. Sending you virtual hugs 🤗 • • • Wine: #Sancerre Rosé 📚🍷 . . #spinesvines #booksandwine #diversespines #roseallday #buddyread #fridayreads #howbeautifulwewere (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-iYnNEAE6s/?igshid=656p2hapra66
