A review by hellolucireads
How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair

I read it for book club but didn’t finish by the time we met. Her writing was beautiful and a lot of it upset me. It was tough and challenging to read knowing it was a memoir! I’m not sure if it was for me, and very hard to rate!

It was engaging but I just got tired of reading it, to be honest. Maybe because it was challenging and upsetting for me.

I read a summary of how everything turned out at the end - just to see if there was a light at the end of it! 

I didn’t know about Rastafarian culture before, and learned so much from her lens. I’d still recommend it even though I didn’t finish!
