Compelling, heartbreaking, and very impactful. I did not see that end coming! Betrayal, double crossing, and deep rooted mistrust. Such a fantastic book. Book #97 in 2024

pickStunning and transformative. These pieces brought the oldest myths and traditions into the world we live in now, and merged the two like a double exposed photograph. It showed beauty in places we typically don‘t see it, and exposed an authenticity to certain rituals in ways I‘d never fully understood before.

Once again a poem in my morning poetry book was inspired by a specific song, and since I don‘t know much about jazz listening to this with Joy Harjo‘s words in mind was revelatory.

(I couldn‘t find a link to the poem, but it‘s The Other Side of Yellow to Blue in the Tagged book).

So, I read this a few weeks ago and have really already forgot most of what happened(not to be mean)but that‘s the truth. I remember liking the story but it was really slow and just not so much for me….loved my picture though❤️🤷🏼♀️
pickCrooked families, drugs, land theft and mostly a story of missing and murdered Indigenous women (MMIWG2S) come together to make this outstanding twisty mystery set in NE Oklahoma written by a Citizen of the Cherokee Nation.
pickLike @Centique said, this is not my favorite of the Love Medicine novels. Many characters are difficult to love, and there is less humor and more relentless depression. But I did love Fleur‘s final act. And I think I know what happened with Lipsha, but would love to discuss with anyone else who has read this. Number 10 for #24in2024 @Jas16

pickThis was an amazing mystery. I like how focused this story was on “mystery“ and not graphic violence and gory scenes.
The story was not predictable, at least it kept surprising me, especially the last bit of chapter twenty and the last few chapters. Oh, that ending was spectacular! 👇
