A collection of indigenous stories about 12 people who are unknowingly connected and about to collide at powwow.Incredible and poignant,this was an amazing book that brings to light part of America‘s atrocious past and how it still impacts native Americans generations later.Full of historical details and personal traumas.This is not an uplifting story,but the best historical fiction works aren‘t cookie cutter happily ever afters.

Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing | Matthew Perry

I picked this up after his tragic death and I regret not reading it sooner. My review is too long and in the comments. Book #68 in 2023

Allthebookclubs I don‘t hold celebrities up on a pedestal, but I‘m deeply fascinated by those who choose to genuinely reveal themselves. The self realization he hits in his book is unreal; from pinpointing the likely cause of his addiction (infant dosing), identifying his abandonment issues, and naming all of his insecurities out loud. 12mo

Allthebookclubs It took a lifetime of self-sabotage for him to learn so much about himself and I wish (and he also self proclaims) that his legacy was more about what he did in recent years to help the addiction community than to solely remember him as Chandler. Although, no one could‘ve been more Chandler and he was truly born to play that part. 12mo

4.5/5
This is a really unique read. It's part neurodivergent love story, part psychological thriller. It is told mostly from the POV of neurodivergent Fern, and alternately, in part, through the journal of her neurotypical twin sister, Rose. I found Fern endearing.

I was pulled in immediately and found it hard to put down! A unique tale about love, family-especially the untraditional kind we find, and witches. What a perfect October story. Book #68 in 2022
