pickSo good. Can‘t wait to discuss with mom and the rest of the library discussion group.
This novel is one of the great loves of my life. It reads straight through, with lots of characters, and my new favourite activity is to reread chapters at random. The chapters work as their own short stories and part of a whole all at once.
Plus, I MET THE AUTHOR THIS YEAR AND HE WAS SOOOOO COOOOOOOL 😍🥰🥰🥰 10/10 would hang out for a long chat, and he gave superb book and podcast recommendations ❤️

pickThis was a great book- the format was really interesting and allowed the readers to feel connected to the characters. He is such a poetic writer. Also the plot line was great- would absolutely recommend
pickGreat book that deals with a lot of tough topics. It is about 12 native Americans getting ready to go to a powwow in Oakland California. I think I would like this book better if the characters were narrowed down to 3 or 4 of them. It was too hard to keep track of all the characters with there being 12 of them.
#tbt Throwback Thursday - feature books I have read that I think are awesome, that need more discussion or push for others to read.
Play, tag, join in (I am terrible at tagging people!)
November in the States is Indigenous People's Month, and this book does an amazing job weaving modern Native history (if you do not know about Alcatraz Island and the Indigenous people it is worth a look into), many story lines, and a big climax.
Amazing book.
pickI really enjoyed this, altho I thought the ending felt a little too chaotic to be left open ended.
Hoping to get to this one soon

panThis disappointed me, with interesting characters, an intriguing structure, and some important messages. However, it just didn‘t hang together: several characters and perspectives that I couldn‘t engage with, and an ending that made no sense to me at all.
