Yesterday was World Book Day. Many parents were struggling to dress their kids up as characters from books, even though I’ve been giving them a steady supply of easy costumes.

Anyway, I saw this yesterday on IG and it made me super happy. 😍😍😍

An Orchestra of Minorities by Chigozie Obioma

This book has had mixed reviews so I left it unread on my shelf for years but I just finished reading it and I get it. I love it. I am the target audience.

The title is so good, when the meaning hits you.
