The Concubine - I read this book 3 more times after I left high school and on each occasion, it felt like I was reading it for the first time.
I'll Marry When I Want by Ngugi wa Thiong'o - another very interesting read. I'm not from central but I found myself reading the Kikuyu version and I must say it was really intruiging.
The Trials of Brother Jero (Masaibu ya Ndugu Jero) - a very hiularious short book. I found myself reading it over and over again too.
Simu ya Kifo - can't remember the author but its a very interesting read too.
Mwana wa Giningi - can't remember the author but a good book too.
Utubora Mkulima by Ken Walibora - his writing style is very catchy and in a class of its own.
People say that reading Kiswahili is a challenge....well, it is difficult but not impossible. Once you read just one book, the next one will be a piece of cake.
