A beautifully written tale that reminds us of the stories that don't always get to be told but certainly should be.

This one was for one of my classes. I honestly had mixed emotions...

*** read for Native American class 21’***

I have no idea what this book said. I know it’s about tayo who has severe ptsd but my understanding stops there. Hate the fact I had to read it for class bc I don’t think I can judge it fairly. Thus my no rating.

This was the second book that I read for my upcoming course, Fiction of the later 20th Century. It was okay. A little dull, but a decent story. I guess it's not something that I'd pick up on my own, and it didn't win me over.
The symbolic word I predict is "Blue."
