Alicyn Henning Nyika was the BEST

Hello beautiful Alicyn ... what a stunning reunion and powerful excerpt you read !

By Kindle Customer

Nyika, what a brilliant read: What a beautiful depiction of an amazing time and place. Took me back to my younger years and reminded me of how lucky I was to have the upbringing I did. To the Author, whom I am privileged to know personally, you have done yourself, the country and its courageous, friendly, incredible people proud.

Nyika I Love You is book of #friendship #love #war #togetherness #savevalleyconservatory in #zimbabwe #elephants #sanctuary This book is a good read and looking into the eyes of a deep friendship between two young girls, one black and one white and how their friendship and love for each other stretched over time into adulthood. Please give this book a read. I don't recommend many things unless it's dear to my heart and this is my second book that I love and wanted go share. Many #blessings my friends #tracypiper @vye.henningway

Morning Alicyn, I absolutely loved reading your book and could so relate to it so much having being brought up in Rhodedia/Zim at the same time. Well done, it really brought back immense deep feelings of a happy happy farm childhood (Beatrice), although it having been during a war. Your book was a 10/10 for me, and I'm su sure many others would enjoy just as much. Best Regards Sandra

Hi Alicyn, Thank you for the reminder but your publicity has been pretty good so I have been following your progress leading up to publication. I want to congratulate you on producing a book, I imagine you ate probably the first Fort Victorian to have done so. Well done and let's hope this is just the first of many

Wonderful Alicyn. Well done to you. I look forward to reading this too. One of my cousins in the UK posted her new book for the moment... Nyika, I love you!

Can anyone recommend any biographies for me to read, written by ex Zimbo Birds, preferably in the time of the war. Nyika, got me going and then I read The Rorkes Drift North.

Amazing story from the heart. Beautiful descriptions of also historically relevant intimate experiences. "Confused as a chameleon on a Smarties box" and so many new ways to learn from the transformation and conflict, of a young woman and a nation at the same time. Funny, gripping and heartbreaking. A traumatic childhood turned lessons for life. Sometimes a bit too 'freestyle' for my taste but what a debut! A absolutely

Alice Vye Hemingway, a great Zimbabwean read. I am enjoying every moment with homesickness and a fantastic reminder all the way. Love the detail of the life integrated with the best people in Zimbabwe, those who protect the wild life (fauna & flora alike)! Love all the reminders of what cams, dung beetles and all the little creatures we had around us. A must for all Zimbabweans to buy, representing a canvas to those who were once fortunate to live there. A wonderful life. fantastic memories. Thank you Alice! Well done dear girl!

Just wanted to let you know, I LOVED this book. It is so resonated with my soul and I felt I got to know so much more about you. I loved the way the book was not just about you but more about how Africa works. To be honest I think you did an outstanding job and for sure you had a childhood many (including me) would have dreamed of having.

I’ve just bought the book on Kindle and am LOVING it. Brings back so many memories, giggles and smiles. EVERYONE should get a copy. Thank you for an AMAZING read!

Although I was born and grew up in Zimbabwe, my time was spent in the city so to read about the authors upbringing in the "bush" was educational. Bravo to those who persevered with doing the right thing regarding wildlife and tribal interactions. A good read.

Well written in journal style but with lots of emotions and love. As someone who calls 'Las Vegas' home, I resonated with this and was reminded of the love I have for my country and home. Thank you for this story, even though it is sad, I really enjoyed it!
