Book Reviews of The House at Sugar Beach: In Search of a Lost African Childhood (Thorndike Biography)
Book Review: Disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
I was not engaged by the first third of this book, and felt no connection with the characters. The historical parts were fascinating, but not enough to compel me to keep reading. So I gave up.
