Thank you to the lovely Alexia Thomaidis Simon Prosser for my proof copy. #BookTwitter #BookTwt #bookblog ger #bookblog ger s #bookblog
This literary novel is a love story between Yejide & Darwin. Set in Trinidad & written in patois, Ayana weaves a vivid tale blurring the line between the living & dead. Possibly challenging, the story grows on you the more you read. Bold & evocative #whenwewerebirds #natakabooks
DΓ©but authors Ayanna Lloyd Banwo and Bobby Palmer discuss their shared experiences of becoming writers, plus the common theme of grief in their novels #WhenWeWereBirds #IsaacAndTheEgg #ThatEggBook Marlborough LitFest #MLF22
Some good Sunday things!

I have a review for this today but I'm not done with it.
But here's a mini review on it;
The pacing is slow but it is one of those books that you have to be patient with to get to the best part and I'm heading there soon.

Itβs strange for me reading a book, where everything is so alive to me. Itβs like a treasure hunt or a dream. I know that Rasta man selling nuts. If I go to Tragarete road, I can find that spot where the stone wall smooths out, replaced by new cement. Ayanna Lloyd Banwo #Whenwewerebirds
