Engaging, Quick, Easy Reading Memoir of Life in Bolivia’s Amazon
This is a very easy raptor read memoir giving us an insight into 21$t Century Bolivia and, of course, into a British woman’s relationship with a New World cat.
I was at once drawn into her story, in part by her self-deprecating humor (or should I use the word humor?) and by her choice of short words, in lieu of hifalutin prose.
LANGUAGE: If adult language disturbs you, though, you may want to look for another story this month. As. For me, I wasn’t especially bothered by the “F” words, but I have come to understand that the frequent use of such a word by Brits is not uncommon. Still, the overuse of .the word in this otherwise fun exploration did detract just a bit of the fun.
Overall, this is a four star read.
