The Sentence

An unsteady book, wherever you may stumble in reading it I can at least say it was about to turn a corner to something else quirky unexpected and real, and the bulk of the story is true enough and heartfelt as far as I can recall and relate, a 2020 Covid & George Floyd indigenous bookstore memoir for Minneapolis.

It's full of wonderful characters that are clunky and flawed in a real and lovable way. But the story just cannot decide what it wants to be. It ends up an arduous slog of pieces that never come together.
