    1. Born A Crime is very funny, but also a brutal and honest account of what it was like growing up in South Africa during apartheid. Ma’am Darling is an entertaining look at the life of Princess Margaret (she sounded monstrous), and Everything I Never Told You is as good as everyone says it is!

  1. The Last Act of Love is SUCH a good book. Horrific and made me cry throughout, but ultimately beautiful and so well written. I need to read that Princess Margaret book and I loved Little Fires Everywhere, so I should add Everything I Never Told You to my list of books to read too.
