Yefon: The Red Necklace is a book that will have you engrossed in learning about the culture of another. I love learning about how other cultures believe and how they interact with the world around them. This book was a great look into the life of an African girl. If you are not used to reading books like this than it may take you a minute to totally grasp it, but I was in love. There is tons of back story which I look for in a book like this so that you can get exactly what the culture is all about and understand actions of the character. I really liked that the language was authentic. There was a lot to this book and I do advise that if you are looking for a light read that this is not it. You will have to pay attention to the detail that the author is putting forth and understand that the character is telling a lot of the story about herself. If you can get through the back story, you will have no problem getting into the book. I really can’t wait for the next part of the series.You will get to learn and understand a different culture that is so different than the one that you are used to. This will open your eyes and you will be transported to another world almost. I think that if people took the time to read books like this that the world would have more understanding and less naive outlooks in other’s lives. People will learn from this book and take a lot from it. This series is one that I will be keeping an eye on to continue.I received this book to review through Beck Valley Books Book Tours, all the opinions above are 100% my own.
