“I wanted to focus on the fact that books are meant to stimulate the imagination, so I formed The Family Book Club.
“We focus on one genre a month and we meet once a month and review the books we read.
“After that, each person then has to create their own story based on the genre we were reading that month.
“The winner then gets a free book,” says Kandaba.
