Very good. The narrative in the north is so real and stunning. I wish it had ended there. The canoe trip is epic. Will maybe read again in 10 years

This was boring. There were a couple of mildly interesting things that happened. But, overall, pretty slow and boring. And I didn‘t see one likable thing about Dido, who seemed to just go back and forth between the men. In fact, I don‘t think I really liked very many of the characters… maybe Gwen, but then I skimmed so much of the book in the end, so hard to say if she really was likable
There is some really beautiful writing in this book and I grew quite fond of a couple of the characters, but the story moved at such a glacial pace that I struggled to pick it up or stay engaged. 3⭐️
This was my #BookSpin pick for January and my #NorthwestTerritories read for #ReadCanada!
My #BookSpinBingo board is ready to go! The tagged book is my #BookSpin pick, while Me Talk Pretty One Day is my #DoubleSpin pick (and a #NewYearWhoDis read)!
OMG! This review is a delicate exercise. I so wanted to be supportive of that book & author. This is the most basic writing (not to be confused with simple) that I have ever read in a book 😳 I‘m glad the author is getting attention for Indigenous rights based on her story, for I do support her mission. She must be a very charismatic and inspirational person to talk or listen to. #ReadCanada 3/13 #NorthWestTerritories
I feel bad 🤷🏻♀️
Starting this one now. As the resume claims, hoping for insight into real issues many Indigenous women face in the light of family ties, education, spirituality, cultural identity, health happiness and courage to speak the truth. ▪️I wonder what it is about the timing in my life, but this is my 3rd book by native authors from Canada this summer. I had never read any before 🤷🏻♀️ #ReadCanada #WomanAuthor #NorthWestTerritories #BAnQ
