5/20/2023 0 Comments Hlomu the wife book 2I kept thinking that I should have read “The Hlomu Series” first as an introduction to the author. This was a nice, light read but I must admit that it didn’t blow me away. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this book. FYI, I previously finished Hlomu The Wife within 2 days. I bought the book weeks ago, and am STILL struggling to finish it. But truthfully speaking, The Zulu Wedding is a bit of a "let down". I do love the 3 books from the Hlomu series, in fact, I'm a die-hard fan irregardless of the grammatical errors. Honestly, if you are going to write about people from a certain country/tribe, rather ensure that the proper research is done, and that all bases are covered. She wrote "Seanamarena a ntate" instead of "Seanamarena sa ntate". She spells Basotho names with a "D", yet it is a known fact that the Basotho names (from Lesotho) that have a "D" sound/pronounciation are spelled with an "L". I got turned off on the first page where "Morija" is misspelled as "Morijo". I even feel like with every book that the author writes, the standard keeps dropping.
