Hum If You Don't Know the Words by Bianca Marais

3.0

I just feel like this book wasn’t for me. I read it for my book club, and I definitely wouldn’t have picked it up otherwise. I think the history part was interesting and it was informative to learn more about South Africa’s political scene at the time. But I just didn’t connect to the main character - the little girl. I also wish that her relationship with Beauty hadn’t been so rushed because the summary made it seem like it was the main focus of the book. Overall written but just didn’t hook me
