Catching up on #Riotgrams! This is one of the first books that came to mind for #BooksThatMadeYouCry. "Elf and Yoli, two smart and loving sisters. Elfrieda, a world-wide pianist, glamorous, wealthy, happily married: she wants to die. Yolandi, divorced, broke, sleeping with the wrong men as she tries to find true love: she desperately wants to keep her sister alive." This book challenged me. This book wrecked me. #CanLit

dixi_e Years after reading this I'm still stuck with the memories of the characters and their stories. This book is phenomenal. It and Indian Horse are the two #mustread recs for #CanLit and great lit in general I give out, solicited or not. 😁 7y

#readingwomenmonth prompt #womenofcolor and #riotgrams prompt #booksthatmadeyoucry collide! It's been a while since I read a memoir, and I'm so glad I picked this one up. She speaks so candidly and thoughtfully about the hardships she's faced, always pausing to explain what they've taught her and the things she's learned since: she's kind with the way she educates her audience. I admire her more with every page, she's a wonderful role model.

Of all the #BooksThatMadeYouCry, this was the most devastating. Especially since I was at work, so I had to hold in what needed to be gut-wrenching sobs. It was awful. #Riotgrams

erinreads I was luckily reading this at home for most of it, but I did scare my husband at one point with all my crying and he tried to hide my book at one point so I'd stop crying, hahaha. 7y

Day 18 #riotgrams #booksthatmadeyoucry. I sobbed like a baby at the end of this one. My poor dog was confused and concerned. Such a good read.

The Order of the Phoenix and the Deathly Hallows are my choices for both the #fathers and #booksthatmadeyoucry prompts. Sirius Black and Dumbledore were my favorite father figures for Harry and their deaths hit me hard! #riotgrams #junebookbugs
