THE BLESSED GIRL BY ANGELA MAKHOLWA

๐Ÿ“šBook synopsis: 

Bontle Tau comes from the slum, her mum runs a bar and she has decided to live a life filled with glamorous things money can buy but is she really satisfied and what exactly is she hoping to achieve in life? We are taken through her life as a businesswoman, a contractor, her bougie life and managing four men โ€˜blessersโ€™.

๐Ÿ“šThoughts&opinions:
I picked up "The blessed girl" because I have a mantra which says "I AM A VERY BLESSED GIRL" but this book gave my mantra a different meaning entirely ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. To me it felt I was reading Bontle's diary ๐Ÿ˜‚

Bontle Bontle I started the initial pages judging you and questioning your every decisions, asking a lot why's then I came to understand why you had to do alot of things you did. Such an easy read which talks about parenting, teenage pregnancy, extravagant lifestyle, friendship, family and so much more!

I am still going to keep my mantra tho๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

FROM ONE TO FIVE

Another Saturday, another bookish rant๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜Š. Welcome to another chapter of weekly special book lovers ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ˜. The star rating system: a simple way to sum up our thoughts on a book, or an outdated habit that's due for a change? The other day I saw a post on Instagram about whether book reviewers still made use of "stars" when reviewing books, and I was compelled to make this a topic on my book segment! So the question is, 'Do reviewers and generally book lovers still make use of stars when reviewing books?' As a book reviewer myself, I love making use of stars, and I will never stop making use of them except a better system comes up for scaling books ๐Ÿ˜‚. It is also true that I correct my ratings accordingly. What do I mean by this?
