Words that come to mind about this book:
yuck
avoid
blasphemous
Does it have some good things to offer the world? Yes. There are good messages of overcoming obstacles and chasing hope when there's none around you. It also gives a good account of what life on Alexie's reservation was like. (Don't let the title fool you; it's partly autobiographical.) People should know the hardships that Indians have encountered due to our country's poor treatment of them. I support youth learning all these lessons, but I cannot support this book because these lessons are mixed in with irreverent and profane statements about the One True God.
Anytime I find someone who reads Christian books I am going to follow!!! :) Look forward to knowing you and hope you can come by for a visit and follow me if you'd like!
