Marcie Rendon has become a go-to author for me when I want a good thriller. This novel did not surprise me with the whodunnit, but it did keep me guessing until the end whether or not Quill would figure it out without another bad thing happening. Love all the characters and the glimpse into life on a reservation, and absolutely applaud her efforts to bring more awareness to the issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women. Will always recommend this author.

Excellent but a tough read - steeped in generational trauma. My only quibble is it felt a bit long in the last 1/3. Mother/daughter relationships take center stage, and are richly and painfully drawn.

Come Let Us Sing Anyway
This collection of stories surprised me at almost every turn. Wild, joyous, subversive, queer, femininist as fuck. Yes please x 1000.

I found this to be a very compelling and well-executed work. The author does an admirable job of not singling out a."bad guy" but lets each participant's own words tell the story. She was given a lot of access to those impacted as well as those responsible, and that felt important. Lots of interesting conversations to have with MY kids.
