Oprah just announced her new book club pick: Say You’re One of Them by Uwem Akpan. The book is a collection of five short stories illustrating life of children in war-torn Africa. Akpan is a Jesuit priest in Nigeria and may just be one of my new inspirations.
I have to admit, sometimes I hear about Oprah’s book club picks and move quickly past them to something else. But this one is pulling at my heart. In staying true to reaching goals, I won’t pick it up until the four books I listed earlier this week are done, but it may be a likely candidate for number 5 on the rest of 2009 list.
