I actually got the book from the library- I was the first person to read it. I will now get it on Kindle as I will want to read it again sometime.
All I can say is that no housework was done, the ironing looked at me accusingly & I just sat & read!
I loved the book- some of it was hard to take- child soldiers in Uganda etc. but I found the whole story magical.
The author is a world authority on leeches- I think he should concentrate on writing from now on!
I hope the library gets more copies soon as I really want to do this with my reading group.
Read this book!
