"This is what I’m talking about!
Interestingly flawed protagonist, funny quirky secondary characters, solid sense of place, good plot, good pacing, and a whimsically demonic villain makes for a really good read. T. Kingfisher is a master. She’s made i" Read more of this review » |

"Very good read. Erdrich is dependably gentle on her readers and on her characters. She eases us and her characters into situations that could be jarring and triggering in less skilled hands.
I trust that she will take care of us as readers. We will s" Read more of this review » |

“My sister taught me everything I knew back then. She taught me how to tie my shoes and she made sure I finished my homework. When she shook me awake in the middle of the night and said, “It’s time to get out of here,” I got up and went because it was how she helped me get ready for the world.”

“When the telephone rang in the middle of the night, I knew.
The Tennessee state trooper on the other end said, "Your sister's been hurt pretty bad."
In my haste to get to Nashville I didn't ask a single question.
There had been a car accident. What else did I need to know?
I'd been dreading a call like that my whole life.”
