Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years, 4 months agoJust finished up Thr3e By Ted Dekker from yesterday. Full of plot twists, horror and just all around craziness. Although my least favorite part would have to be Kevin’s family background. This book is one you won’t want to put down and i highly recommend it to whoever hasn’t read it!

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years, 4 months agoI just finished reading “The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian” by Sherman Alexei (230 pages) after a friend recommended it to me (she’s reading her way through all the books that have won National Book Awards — previously, she read through all the Caldecott Medal winners, and I can usually trust her taste in books). It tells the story…[Read more]

Sherman Alexei is a fantatic writer, isn’t he? I love his work.
-
He is, indeed. And I have a particular fondness for any writer who can break my heart in one paragraph and make me laugh in the next. :) I’m adding all of his other books to my “to read” list.

My love for Sherman Alexie is HUGE. He is such a fantastic writer (and person in general). We were assigned the Lone Ranger and Tonto Fist Fight in Heaven, which is a collection of short stories that are all interrelated. I fell in love ever since. Also, this essay that he wrote this month is amazing, you should check it out!…[Read more]

He also writes, produces and directs films! ‘Smoke Signals’ was based on one of his short stories and introduced me to the fantastic Adam Beech. The Business of Fancydancing is just beautiful and has a gay protagonist.
-
I saw ‘Smoke Signals’ years and years ago and loved it! I would like to revisit it soon. :D
I will definitely have to check out The Business of Fancydancing, thanks!

I did this backwards and watched the film before reading the book. I liked both! Some of the more interesting parts were only in the book, like the aftermath of Chris’s death. I’m not sure what to make of this quote, though:
“She must be fucking nuts. You know what I bet? I bet they think I’m a…[Read more]-
I think I would have to listen to the soundtrack while reading the book because Eddie Vedder did such an amazing job with it that I can’t imagine Chris’ story without the music.
