“In weaving together themes of identity, belonging, grief and land, The Theory of Crows is a novel that approaches rapture.” — Yann Martel, author of The High Mountains of Portugal and Life of Pi https://t.co/qFppZ17U8o

Sugar Falls: A Residential School Story is a #1 bestseller on Amazon. One of my earliest, and most important, graphic novels. Nice to see it still is being read. The 10th Anniversary Edition is exactly what I envisioned way back in 2011. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1553799755/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tu00_p1_i1 https://t.co/NQJpZULyu6

I missed a big one, and one of my favourite poetry books, on my @cbcbooks list of books to read to learn about residential schools. Calling Down the Sky by Rosanna Deerchild is a must-read. #trc Calling Down the Sky https://t.co/vwPJQ0sHp7

I really, really loved 'When We Lost Our Heads' by @lethal_heroine. I probably don't have to tell you this, but you should totally read it. It's amazing. Heather's book and Valley of the Bird Tail are probably my favourite books of 2022, Fiction/non-Fiction.
