Ahsante

I may be trying to get on the good side of Bants and SBB here, but I really want to say thank you for the effort into keeping bookworms alive. And bants (you can translate this into sheng) you are still co-editor!

Now that am back from the bush, and we have two editors, let us try and revive this blog. There was a time I was overwhelmed with reviews, but either watu wameacha kusoma (shudders!) or guys are too busy to send in reviews. But kichwa ngumu mimi shall not give up so here is my request:
Anyone who has read the following books kindly send in a review:

1. The Wangari Maathai book:- Unbowed

2. The Raila Odinga book:

3. The Moi book: Elder statesman (or whatever)

4. The Mandela book: Long walk to freedom

5. The kibaki book? Iko?

Am sure you can see a pattern here. Biographies of famous and infamous people............

There shall be a prize at the end of the biography session!!! So get writing. (pleeeease, they shall close us down if you dont) How is that for blackmail...

Hello bookworms,
Seems like this worthy enterprise went dead. Just when we were beginning to really seek out literary talent from the kenyan blogosphere.
Wouldn't it be nice to find here a review of the newly launched Kwani 04, which features several kenyan bloggers?

click on the link to check out our new blog too!
