i literally repressed the fact that in the epilogue (like ten years later) the boy marries the girl he treated like a sister thru the whole book (he's 6 years older) & was SHOCKED when someone reminded me the other day
anyway who the fuck let us write books set in africa & full of the white savior bulshit

I didnt enjoy it at all, except from the occasional moment. Its supposed to be a kids book, so why was it so political and it just went on and on! I understand it was written over a century ago so it is very outdated but it was still very dehumanizing and prejudiced. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
