This book tells an important story and I was interested in learning more as it progressed. While I’ve read books that were written better I think that the simplicity of the story and writing is likely a more accurate representation of this true ev...

I think we all need to read this book. It hits on many tough topics, but I think everybody can relate to hardships, othering, and skewed views of beauty. While some of the situations and stories seemed exaggerated or more on the extreme end, I thi...

This book surpassed my expectations. It was a short, easy read and the sketches within it made it feel more like a journal. I liked Juniors transparency about his life on the rez and leaving it for a better education.

Not sure how to feel about this one. I don’t think I’m in the place to fully appreciate the power of now. This may be one I have to reread in the future.

I found the subject matter quite interesting. This alternate reality is sadly something that could actually happen overnight. I enjoyed the short chapters and that I wanted to learn more about Offred’s life despite there not being much of a climax...
