Firekeeper's Daughter | Angeline Boulley

pick

5/5 ⭐️ Heartbreaking but beautiful! One of the reasons I loved this story was because of the setting in the UP of Michigan. The UP will always hold a piece of my heart. My grandpa was from there and even had Obijwe ancestry. I ended up going to university at Michigan Tech and lived there for almost a decade. While reading I knew the places, the roads, and the food they talked about.

JamieArc I agree that this book repped Michigan so well. 2w

TheBookHippie I‘m so so sorry. Sending so much love to you. I do understand and I am always here …💔 my heart just breaks for you. 3w

Amiable I‘m so sorry for you, and other women who are being forced to make this decision. 💙 My boss told me today that her daughter recently had a miscarriage and was hoping to try again—but she lives in Florida and is now terrified of what might happen if something goes wrong with another pregnancy. This is so, so wrong. Sending much love and virtual hugs to you and your husband. 3w

AllDebooks Oh Leila, I'm so very sorry to read this. I completely understand your fears and anger. It is so shocking how much women's rights are being eroded. It's like we've dialled back the clock to Victorian times. My thoughts are with you and your husband. Sending live from the UK. XXX 3w

Jari-chan Sending you love and tight hugs across the ocean ❤ 3w

Bookbuyingaddict Oh my goodness sending love ❤️ and thoughts are with you , I also could not have children so I do know exactly what you‘ve been going through , apart from I am lucky enough to live in the UK 🇬🇧 and had nothing but help and affection.

OriginalCyn620 Leila, I send my love to you! You have every right to be angry, and it‘s infuriating and heartbreaking that you and others even have to make these kinds of decisions. It shouldn‘t be that way! But whatever is next for you on your journey, I wish you the best. 3w

Librarybelle I‘m so sorry. ❤️ 3w

Liz_M Oh honey, what a terrible decision to have to make. I am sorry we are living in these times, but I know you and your husband will find a way to create a loving space for whatever your future family will be. 3w

Laughterhp 💚💚 My husband and I made a similar decision though our situation is a bit different than yours. Sending you lots of hugs and love. 3w

Prairiegirl_reading I‘m so sorry. I did not have children and I think it happened that way so that I can help others. You absolutely can be a mother without giving birth. I‘m sorry that you don‘t have the option of going forward with your plan because of so many ignorant and selfish people. 3w

Kenyazero I'm so sorry you both are dealing with this during a time when you have to make a decision between your life and a future family. My husband and I have need of a surogate for our own family planning journey and we are not sure if this option will continue to be available to us as this new administration moves in. I hope you're able to find the time and space to breathe and grieve. Not an easy decision to have to make. 3w

ncsufoxes I‘m sorry that you have to go through this. It has to be such a heartbreaking decision. It‘s not fair that this decision is being forced upon you. These are the stories that politicians don‘t understand when they make laws about women‘s bodies. I think many people are having to make this heartbreaking decision too, unfortunately. 💓 3w

Just a reminder to turn in your points tonight for the first half of #HauntedShelf 🐦‍⬛

You can make your own post or comment below

Hopefully you're having a good time! 🧡🖤

@Librarybelle @TheSpineView @Yuki_Onna @Light_of_Aether @TexReader @charityann @redxohearts @julieclair @triplem80 @deblovestoread @Addison_Reads @ElizaMarie @TheBookDream @julsmarshall @MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm

Deblovestoread My total is 1315 🖤🧡🖤 1mo

triplem80 Just 513 for me -- but I swear there will be more in the second half!! 😄 1mo

Librarybelle I only have 52 points recorded…yikes! I‘m so not good at keeping track of points. 😂 Maybe I‘ll be a bit more proactive with it the second half of the month (especially with tracking hours read—did not track this time). 1mo

See All 16 Comments

Addison_Reads I have 2387 points. I'll add up bingo boards and readathons at the end. 1mo

Catsandbooks @Yuki_Onna Terrific! 🙌🏼🧡 1mo

Catsandbooks @Texreader @redxohearts @ElizaMarie @TheBookDream @Julsmarshall please get me your points asap! Thanks! 😊 1mo

Texreader Getting to you soon!! Sorry! 1mo

Texreader 430. I‘ll be adding readathons and bingos at the end. So hopefully it‘ll be a lot higher!! 1mo

Texreader @Librarybelle I‘m terrible at keeping track of time. So, here‘s my hint: go to Libby or Amazon and search for each book you‘ve read. If they have an audiobook option, it will tell you how long it takes to listen and I use that because it‘s pretty close. So then I identify which books go with each readathon and tally points for each readathon 1mo

Librarybelle Thanks for the tip, @Texreader ! 1mo

Catsandbooks @Texreader That's great! Thank you! 🙌🏼🧡 1mo
