I read the book AND listened to the audio book. I do that a lot when I like a book and want more, because I get it twice in two different ways and the audio book takes less concentration during my commute. In any case, I LOVED the book that much. What I loved about the audio version was Trevor’s beautiful South African accent and his speaking Afrikaans, Xhosa, Zulu and other languages complete with all those interesting click sounds!
@Rachel Trevor Noah was a boy born to a white man and a black mom during South Africa’s apartheid. He tells of the history of apartheid and his upbringing. He is a comedian. You can google him. Brilliant.
Agree! Love that book.
Absolutely.
Wonderful story. Another book I could not put it down!!
I’m reading it now!!
Agreed!
I’m a human and I’ll get right on that! Been meaning to for a long time.
Wonderful book.
I highly recommend the audiobook version as well – Trevor reads it himself. It’s like he’s telling you his life story – it’s amazing ?
@Zaga I did too. He was very good and his story was educational to me as well.
I got the book from the library.
I just started it! I’m so excited to finally read it
Excellent to listen to also- he narrates.
It’s SO good! I agree about the audiobook for this – it’s great to hear Trevor speak the languages. Either way, he’s a fantastic storyteller.
I agree!
Putting on the list
Yes!
Discussing it tomorrow night at our library book club!
I really enjoyed it a great deal.
I just finished it and I couldn’t agree more.
Wonderful book.
You just convinced me! Can’t wait to read it.

And a really terrific audio book which he reads and knows all the languages
Great book!
I keep meaning to purchase this. I’ll add it to my list.
My sister says we must listen to the audiobook. He reads it himself!
Listen to the audio book
@Debbi wish I had done it that way.
@Elizabeth – Honestly, even though you’ve already read it, I would still recommend you listen to the audiobook.
I normally only read books but I may have to get the audible version. I would love to hear Trevor read!!!
Is it appropriate for a 13 year old?
My 7th grade boy read and loved it.
@Julie I say yes, absolutely.
Read it, and thought it was just okay, but I also hear the audiobook is done well.
