⭐⭐⭐ – Great cover on this one.
I honestly don't have a ton to say about this one. I enjoyed it. It was relatively short, and the author has an engaging “voice”. There were funny parts. There were boring parts. There were interesting parts (the hunt for the Mokele M'Bembe). It didn't blow me away, but it was a solid read.
