pickA gem I picked up at my library‘s used book sale. I find Erdrich‘s writing beautiful and heartbreaking. I feel a real connection to Native American culture and Erdrich is one of my favorite authors.
pickCompelling, 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).
One bingo Column 1 🎉 and a “sort of” bingo Row 3 when I randomly placed the books I was currently reading when I realized I had failed to put them on the original list of 20. OOOOPs❗️ I won‘t likely finish any more books from the card in the next few days…. I am proud that I got the Spin 🍭 Book read 😁 I read 14 books this month — only 6 were on this card 🤔 #BookSpinBingo
