WINTER IN THE BLOOD
A contemporary classic from a major writer of the Native American renaissance - “Brilliant, brutal and, in my opinion, Welch's best work.“ —Tommy Orange, The Washington Post
One of The Atlantic's Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years
During his life, James Welch came to be regarded as a master of American prose, and his first novel, Winter in the Blood, is one of his most enduring works.

Put some decorations out last night, then read two more stories from LEGENDARY FRYBREAD DRIVE-IN, a shared world YA anthology that gives an Indigenous twist to the inn-between-worlds concept. As of 50%, the majority of the stories are strong, with solid emotional cores.

That was a flora and fauna snooze fest, but I got another bingo 😁

Going for a 4th bingo with this book that's been on my TBR shelf since college

Linda Hogan was one of the authors included in the “Spider Woman‘s Granddaughters” collection I read last month. When in Utah we stopped at a little bookstore and there was a collection of her poetry! How could I say no?

An absolutely beautiful book. Hogan is Chickasaw and pulls from her life and her peoples‘ history to examine what it means to be in connection with the earth and each other in a time of destruction, pain, and change.

True story of John Meyers and Charles Bender, who in 1911 became the first two Native pro baseball players to face off in a World Series.

All welcome🩵🩵🩵🩵
This is a short book, but possibly heavy- so I split it into the parts it already lends to us. The entire book is 130 pages. I think it's an important read. I got this penguin due to the forward by Joy Harjo and the Intro by Louise Erdrich.🖤
