The Girl Who Smiled Beads: A Story of War and What Comes After
by Clemantine Wamariya
This story was absolutely heartbreaking and beautiful all at the same time. I truly don't have the right words to say in reviewing this book other than YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO READ THIS! if it wasn't for Book Of The Month, I'm not sure when I would have gotten the chance to read this but now I did before it's on the shelves!
Clemantine is such a powerful person, she took me to a place in my heart that I haven't been to in such a long time and to tell her story was so brave and courageous. I have so much love her for, so much pain for her and can only hope that she knows and understands how captivating this story is to so many readers. This story has given me knowledge in understanding things that I hold close to my heart but rarely remind myself of it. To know that it's okay and you are strong, you are powerful and you can do whatever you want in this world and to be your own hero. I thank her for giving me this story to read and opening my heart a little more to what is around me and who I have near me.
I can only say so much about this book until I just tell you everything so I highly encourage you to pick this up on April 24th and go in this story with a big heart and just know that it will be hard at times giving this book is non fiction and you're following a young girl who goes through very raw events that you couldn't imagine. Please read this story, I promise you that you will recommend it to your neighbors right after.
