I honestly had no idea Smoke Signals was even based on a book (probably wasn't paying attention) and I absolutely loved the movie. I've read a number of accounts from Indians (Russell Means and Mary Crow Dog notably) but nothing by Alexie. I may just have to go pick this up.LoopdiLouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071128534047439266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-91288937682345036872009-02-23T22:35:00.000-05:002009-02-23T22:35:00.000-05:00My father, who passed away a month ago, would have...My father, who passed away a month ago, would have just loved to read this. He was always talking about watching The Lone Ranger as a kid and he loved westerns, both books and movies. When I first read this, my first instinct was to e-mail it to him. I guess that will still happen for a while. I will probably want to read this book one day, but it will have to go on the TBR list for now.Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02706544792110129160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-70234760708714549152009-02-23T19:26:00.000-05:002009-02-23T19:26:00.000-05:00I've been meaning to read The Absolutely True Diar...I've been meaning to read <I>The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian</I> for ages, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

My edition was the original one and after reading your comments, I think I missed out on something good by not having the intro by Alexie or the final two added stories. I'm still uncertain if I'll read something else of his or not so I'll be curious to see if you do and what you think of it if you do.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651401312450990123noreply@blogger.com
