Today‘s kitty tether time is all about poetry with that WOW factor. QUESTIONS I ASKED MY MOTHER is a powerful entry in the prairie Mennonite literary canon. Brandt‘s questions aren‘t just for her mother; they‘re for the whole world, with an emphasis on how people perform their faith and how femininity manifests within her childhood community.

so-soNot my cup of tea. I‘m normally into a family saga but the time jumps in this weren‘t always obvious until far into a new time frame and it was sometimes confusing. I won‘t be bothering with the next in the series.
The #boutofbooks gods are smiling down on me - I was in an all-day workshop today, travelling into the big city with a colleague, not expecting to get home until close to 7. But we finished an hour early and my colleague had another meeting so I not only get an unexpected hour of reading on the train but an extra hour tonight!! Plus tomorrow‘s session was cancelled so I get my four hours of travel time tomorrow back, too!!!
pickThis classic of Can-Lit is possibly the saddest story love story I have yet read

TY @ kois88 I picked up a couple of books tonight from Book Outlet 🙂🤫
The characters in this book about a small town in Saskatchewan seem like people you've met or would like to. The vignettes roll slowly into each other quietly and perfectly.
pickMany of the chapters of this novel read so much like self contained short stories, that I thought it was indeed an interconnected collection until I went back and read the summary again. It's all character & place exploration of a small community in Saskatchewan, not much plot to speak of, and contains some beautiful writing. It is right in my wheelhouse. I'll be checking out more!
