This is the third book that I’ve read this year that will stay with me forever! Tough read . I despise the missionaries! The author is a remarkable Indigenous woman from the Ecuadorian rainforest. Activists like the author Nemonte play such a crucial role in protecting our planet.

I loved how her community interpreted dreams.,where their ancestors are (spirit of jaguars), plants for medicinal help. Etc..There’s one plant in the rainforest that if you touch the leaf it closes- this works for putting babies to sleep! I love that!

I will support Amazon Frontlines, a respected group, mentioned in the book, to see in my small way, besides limiting my driving/flying and see how I can help!

My rating is in the minority I’m sure. My biggest grievance is the book is classified as historical fiction! I do not agree with that! I usually like that genre. This was a silly story in my opinion! ]]> ReadStatus9262033535 Wed, 02 Apr 2025 05:31:06 -0700 <![CDATA[Julie wants to read 'The Thursday Murder Club']]> /review/show/7456165774 The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman Julie wants to read The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman

Who doesn’t like Cher? I know I watched the Sonny and Cher show. Yes, there wasn’t many choices, but I do remember it being very entertaining!
I’ll have to ask my granddaughter, age 15 if she’s heard of her. Probably not!
Good memoir. I look forward to Part Two! ]]> ReadStatus9247376381 Sat, 29 Mar 2025 16:17:53 -0700 <![CDATA[Julie is currently reading 'Broken Country']]> /review/show/7445842928 Broken Country by Clare Leslie Hall Julie is currently reading Broken Country by Clare Leslie Hall
