Send Her Back and Other Stories by Munashe Kaseke My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Send Her Back and Other Stories by Munashe Kaseke is an interesting look into the lives of immigrant women both in the United States and in their own countries. Each of the stories in this book are from the woman's perspective and tell their stories of hope, struggle, sacrifice, success, and failure. I enjoyed the open, honest writing style and the no-holds truth these women faced in their everyday lives. The author addressed difficult issues relevant to immigrant women. Each story was unique and interesting in its own way. I would recommend this book to anyone looking to expand their horizons. I listened to the audio of this book. The narrator was engaging and authentic. I enjoyed listening to it I received a copy of this book from Netgalley. See allof my reviews
The Ways We Hide by Kristina McMorris My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've been on a WWII kick lately. I love reading about the every day people who went above and beyond to help their to become unsung war heroes. It gives me hope for humanity. The Ways We Hide is a historical fiction story based around true events. Fenna had a good, but hard life. She went through many hardships and overcame them to do great things. Her story is one of love and loss and courage to endure. I enjoyed her story, her tenacity, and her unwillingness to give up on those she loves. This was my second book by this author, and I've come to enjoy the writing style and storytelling. I received an advanced copy of this book from Netgalley. See all of my reviews
