Audio book: May 20 - May 26, 2016 Librivox recording - recorded by John Nicholson (I still vote for Sean Connery to do this reading) You know what I love about book reviewing and blogging the most? It gives you the freedom to google your favourite books and characters for hours and hours and if someone asks what you are doing you can quite honestly say: RESEARCH. (You might even glare at them over the rim of your glasses. For effect you know. Also make sure to have a pencil at hand.

I love my country, but I am not always proud of my country. But I will never be a Peter and say "I do not know you". I would rather be like a real prim and proper Afrikaans "poppie" and just keep quite and sit in the corner. And then someone like Tannie Maria comes along and she reminds you of a couple of things:  I love being Afrikaans I love the Klein Karoo I love koeksisters, bobotie, melktert, vetkoek and karringmelk beskuit I love vetplantjies I love the smell of the first rain on the warm dry earth I love SPAR (although I might check out the managers with an eagle eye hence forth) I love being white, but have a black friend that I can honestly call one of my 5 best friends ever.  I love reading a South African murder m...
