My name is Charity Matlala and I am an influencer. My interest lie heavily with books. I am an avid reader and book reviewer. I strive to live a well balanced lifestyle. Physical and mental health is important to me. I love healthy and conscious living and will try any Vegan product.
I have so many fantasy romance books to get to. Most of mine are BIPOC authors, though. I do want to try the serpents and the wings of night because I’ve heard great things!

Yesss Freshwater!! 👏🏾 To this day its still my favorite of theirs, i was actually thinking of rereading it soon! Its so incredible! Im excited to hear your thoughts on it.
Freshwater is AMAZING I loved it!! It's very powerful, quick and also just wow! Written impeccably! By the way, you look GREAT!!! <3 Im commenting as I watch ok, Goldiggers was PHENOMENAL. Sue is one of my favourite authors.
Thank you so much friend☺️. Freshwater seems to be getting all the love. Definitely bumping it up on my TBR. Sue also gets a lot of love. I can’t wait to fall in love with more of her works.
Definitely love your list, and I think you should prioritize Baba Segi’s wives 😂. Here are my recommendations: Nearly All the Men in Lagos are Mad, We Need New Names and Stay with Me.
Thank you Naledi. I will definitely bump up Baba Segi on the list then. I actually have all your recommendations except for Stay With Me. I need to get that book.
Fun video. You tackled lots of everyday subjects. Meal prep makes for an easy, less stressful week. Your hair looks lovely. Your daughter is cute. It's important to instill the love of reading in them. I agree with you when it comes to booktok....it can be overwhelming and may not suit everyone's personality.😅
Hey Mamu. Thank you for your continuous support of my channel 😍🥰😘. Thank you. I love how she is falling in love with reading and library visits. It’s library day today and she is so excited to go with. Yeah booktok/tiktok is definitely for a specific personality. I am constantly overwhelmed when I am over there
That teapot is soooo cute 🥹. Also we don’t talk about iron deficiency enough, I hope you’ve been taking care of yourself bubs 💕 I enjoyed this vlog so much
Ooh it’s so pretty. I haven’t been using my other pot 😂. No we definitely don’t talk about Iron deficiency and I feel like it affects a lot more people than we realise. I have been taking care of myself. I made sure to do full blood work to make sure there aren’t any other issues. And I have been good since. Thank you so much for watching🥰
Wow the authors home is STUNNING!!! 😮🥰🥰🥰 this was such a relaxing vlog to watch, kept me company in getting ready this morning. ❤️ That teapot from Woolies is a must! Definitely!!!!
Ooh that house 😮💨😍 is absolutely stunning. It is the house of dreams. Thank you so much for watching my friend. I am glad you found company in it. I LOVE that teapot. I haven’t even used my stone cast one since I bought this one lol.
The place looked so lovely! It made me want to come over there. Looks like you and the ladies had a lot of fun.☺The pictures in the book looked really good and appetizing. Maybe we can see you in one of your videos trying one of the recipes.😊 I hope you had fun at the wedding!
Oh it was so stunning 😍. We definitely had a lot of fun. I will definitely share recipes I try out from this cookbook. Everything in there looks so good but easy to put together. The photographer did an amazing job of capturing all that food.
Hi Edel. It is similar to Pomodoro/Productivity Sprints. Once each month myself and 3 other ladies host reading sprints for 20 hours. We each take a turn hosting on our RU-vid channels for 5 hours each. During each session we read books and chat about them. We usually set out a time (1 hour slots for each sprint) for reading, have a break where we chat about our reads then sprint again.
We are having reading sprints this weekend. Starting 7.5 hours from now on @bookamoso’s channel and on my channel it will be on Saturday, 25 May at 7am SAST. Watch out for the YT links
Try to find your specific branch profile on IG. They usually advertise upcoming sales on their IG pages. The Bargain Books warehouse in Cape Town also has great sales. You should check it out
I have lots of thoughts, The Atlas Complex, I still need to get that book although im a bit skeptical based on the reviews. Murdle looks interesting, I need it. I have the first two books of Jade City but I haven't started it yet, top of my TBR. I read The Prophets but I never finished it, I don't know why. Im still yet to read The End, loved the other five books but I can't remember how the last book ended eish. I love Andy Weir, I still need to read The Martian, please read Project Hail Mary after, fantastic book. 🌙🌙
I tried to stay away from reviews of books 2 and 3 of The Atlas Series because I knew I needed to finish it. I don’t have Project Hail Mary yet but it is definitely on my list. I watched The Martian and loved it now I hope the book is even better. I wish they had different covers.
The Prophets had also been one on my radar too!!! I need to get that book too! 😢… I must admit the Atlas series book covers are stunning, I also love the stars & constellations!! 🌟 so happy to see that you picked up Red At the Bone!!! This was one of my fave books a number of years ago! ❤ The Girl Beneath The Sea cover is STUNNING!!🔥😮💨‼️
Gideon the ninth: read and recommend, you will love The Expanse: the TV series is so oo good, can't wait to read the book ❤ Little Thieves: love love love. Can't wait for you to read it Adding some of the books you listed to my TBR !
