Dear readers,
#Because Nigeria is beating a Guinness World Record!
Yesterday evening, I stopped by to cheer on the Read Aloud Team, who have been reading books by Nigerian authors since August 12th. Their goal is to break the Guinness World Record for the Longest Marathon Reading Aloud by a Team, while also raising awareness for literature and literacy.
So far, they’ve surpassed 365 hours, and they’re still going strong! 📚🔥
I’m delighted to have donated books, and excited that they’ll also be reading my novel, Murder On Site.
