So I did not finish this book. I'm not going to rate it today. I tried yo get into this story and just could not. I may give it another chance though because I was listening via library digital audio. I often prefer reading to audio.
Interesting journey into an expansion of the world of [b:Out of Africa 781787 Out of Africa Isak Dinesen https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1608486134l/781787.SY75.jpg 1189079].
Read this book very quickly - It is the story of Beryl Markham - a woman raised in Africa who went on to become an accomplished horse trainer as well as the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic. She also had a lot of interesting relationships in a time where it wasn't very acceptable.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes stories about strong independent women. Looking forward to the book discussion tomorrow.
I loved learning about Beryl Markham, an extraordinary woman whose story made me see the beauty of Africa I'd never understood before. She was unorthodox, daring, tough, smart and incredibly interesting. I'm now reading her memoir and loving that as well.
