Hope is our Only WIng is the heartbreaking story of Shamiso and Tanyaradzwa. After Shamiso moves from the UK to Zimbabwe she makes an unlikely friendship with the quiet lonely girl Tanyaradzwa. There lives are constantly changing as the political unrest and grief and mysteries try to tear them apart.
My favourite part of the book where Tanyaradzwa’s part, reading how despite her constant struggles she was determined to act normal and go to school. The fact the girls in the story are only teenagers and yet are facing all the troubles was absolutely heartbreaking to read. The story (probably because it’s YA) did feel a bit simplistic but that also made the story so much more real as it is all about teenagers. I very much almost cried at the end of this book, I won't give away the ending but I it’s definitely worth the read.
This book is very definitely a YA book, the writing is has a very simplistic style and I read it within an hour. Despite that I would definitely recommend this book to anyone for a simple but heartbreaking read, that will really make your think.
