5 days into my trip I ran out of books. Fortunately we were in Missoula Montana for a day and I stopped into a local independant bookstore and picked up a few more...
The Plague of Doves by Louise Erdrich
This book was a good read with a lot of characters and stories that wind and come together for a satisfying ending. I liked it but did get a bit confused in the middle on who was who and what person belonged to what story. I did manage to get it together though... Make mental notes!
Rating: Donate It.
Shit My Dad Says by Justin Halpern
Very funny but also quite tender as well. The dad is bluntly honest and doesn't express himself in the most eloquent way at times but this book has a beautiful father son relationship that you can't help but enjoy.
Rating: Donate It.
Pretty-Shield by Frank B. Linderman
Memories told by a Crow woman who grew up in the States. It begins with her memories of living with her people and following the bison herds as a way of life. It's a interesting glimpse into different time and a different history.
Rating: Donate It.
Letters From Yellowstone byt Diane Smith
I thought this started out a bit slow but was surprised by how much I fell in love with this book by the end. A book about science, discovery and adventure.
Rating: Donate It.
Beautiful In The Mouth by Keetje Kuipers
I don't usually get poetry and this is one of those times. I didn't find anything new to learn from this author and bored quite quickly with her collection of poems. I will give her the benefit of the doubt that I might not be the best audience for judgement.
Rating: Burn It.
