For those of you who enjoy reading, I wanted to let you know about a new novel that was just released. I have not started reading it yet, but it sounds quite good. It is called A Brief History of Seven Killings by Marlon James. He also wrote The Book of Night Women (which I loved) and John Crows Devil (which I struggled to finish). He is from Kingston and all three of this novels are based in Jamaica. This new one is historical fiction related to the assassination attempt on Bob Marley prior to his Smile Jamaica concert in 1976. I can't wait to read it. Here is the link for anyone interested:
