Not as much reading got done in March as in the first 2 months of the year, but I got in quite the mix - some fiction, some not, some American, some not, some Native American, some not ...
"Killers of the Flower Moon" blew me away with its revealing exposure of the disgusting and harsh treatment the Osage Indians suffered at the hands of the first Westerners. A piece of history we might wish to forget, but which ought to have a place in the history books, nevertheless. It's time to find out about our shameful past.
And Tommy Orange's "Wandering Stars" ... devastatingly real.
A line from Splinters by Leslie Jamison stood out for me:
"We aren't loved in the ways we choose; we're loved in the ways we are loved."
