Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m squeezing in one more book for April for #foodandlit #Rwanda @Catsandbooks

An absolutely charming book! Tanzanian Angel bakes beautiful unique amazing cakes in Kigali, #Rwanda, there with her professor husband teaching in the university. Each customer has a story and Angel learns a lot and shares a lot, and solves a problem here and there. She learns how the neighborhood prostitute got that job 😢 and how the local ladies handle female mutilation. Angel solves marital woes and so much more. She reminds me of Mma ⬇️

I‘ve been reading rather than writing reviews! So… coming soon, a raft of reviews!

This is the next audiobook I‘ve started today for #foodandlit #Rwanda @Catsandbooks

A humble man remains decent during a civil war in his beloved country. He doesn't shy from the atrocities he witnesses. He also still has lingering anger toward UN for taking so long to get involved and being hesitant in calling the atrocities a genocide. Even though he lives in Belgium, his heart remains in Rwanda, and he continues to be afraid for its future, of another genocide. A MUST READ. #FoodandLit @Texreader @Catsandbooks

I‘ve started this audiobook tonight, my third book for #Rwanda #foodandlit @Catsandbooks

I don‘t think I‘m keen on trying this Rwandan specialty

It was not the largest genocide in the history of the world, but it was the fastest and most efficient.

I watched Hotel Rwanda many years ago. When my youngest was watching it in her social studies class this past March, it left her unsettled, and she needed to talk. I knew what book I wanted to read to get more information. You can't explain hate, I know, but you can remember. #FoodandLit @Texreader @Catsandbooks

Great quotes. First, I love that the main character Angel, the cake maker, is going through the “change.” The doctor asked Angel if she‘s flashing! Poor Angel she‘s flashing all the time. I feel for her!

And second, don‘t you just love the name Dr Rejoice?
