I've spent all afternoon sitting in a sunny window reading this (and being supplied with coffee and chocolates by DH Smile

It's not the type of book I'd normally choose but I read good reviews and am really enjoying it.

Anyone else enjoyed it?

Read it. It was ok.

I liked it a lot, especially after the first third or so. Keep meaning to read another of hers I've got.

I loved it, but the end section let it down a bit for me. Felt a bit tacked on.

I thought the end was realistic, it tapered out just as real life would.

Absolutely loved it. Beautiful writing, made me want to go to The Congo!
