A Girl Is A Body of Water

emily_alwubayran shared a tip "A powerful story about finding one’s own true voice. Rich with Ugandan folklore and culture, along with beautiful written scenes of emotion and grace, a Girl is a Body of Water is a tribute to young girls everywhere who are embracing themselves as women, as storytellers, and as boundary breakers."

suzanne_allinger shared a tip "I loved this book. Now that it is finished, I feel lonely without all these women around me. I enjoyed the protagonist’s journey and all those who loved and supported her. A Coming of age, feminist, women empowering, unleashing. What it means when they say, “it takes a village” to raise a child. I don’t come from this story’s cultural background, or knew the exact definition and translation of certain words used. I still really enjoyed this book. These women, this family, the author have added to my life. ❤️"
