This was my first book by Louise Erdrich, and I think her writing is impactful. I thought the setting / timing / pacing of the story was well done. Indigenous stories and perspectives are important, and I am grateful that I chose this book to begin learning more about those topics. There were times that I laughed while reading, and times Inwas overcome by sadness. If an author and their book makes me feel, it’s a win in my book.
