W5A3 - Amazon's Best of the Month - This assignment is to pick a book from the list and describe why it would be popular and who it would appeal to.  I stumbled upon a book on the list that seems to be very pertinent.  It's called Confession of the Lioness by Mia Couto, and it has a similar appeal as the new hit series called  "Zoo," which is an adaptation of James Patterson's book of the same title.  In "Zoo" the animals communicate with each other (telepathically, of course) and instead of the humans hunting animals, the animals are actually killing the people.  A twisted thriller TV show that has everyone buzzing.  In Confession of the Lioness, "traditions and beliefs are threatened when ghostlike lionesses begin hunting and killing the women" of Kulumani (Amazon).  I believe this book would appeal to a large audience right now because of its pertinence.  I would say anywhere from teens to older adults.  People who enjoy exotic travel, mystery, suspense, and setting would probably appreciate this novel.
