The Killers of the Flower Moon | David Grann

I am starting this true story without seeing the film yet. I liked the author‘s Lost City of Z.

kspenmoll A great great book.💚 5d

KCofKaysville @kspenmoll Good to hear! 5d

5feet.of.fury I‘m listening to the audio of this one, I‘ve been enjoying it so far, but I distracted myself at first by trying to picture who was playing who in the movie and then that person would get murdered.. Guess that wasn‘t DeNiro then 😅 4d

jlhammar Grann is one of my favorite nonfiction authors. Definitely worth reading before watching the movie! Hope you‘re enjoying it. 2d

I don‘t read true crime, but the way this book was set up I wasn‘t lost in the details and there were lots. It was extremely interesting and I had no idea about this history, although horribly not surprising. I hope others get justice too. I would suggest reading the book before watching the movie. It‘s easier to follow when you actually know all the details. I liked the movie, although it was very long and as usual they changed some things.

Mean Spirit is better!! Or maybe, I can suggest that if you liked/appreciated Grann‘s NF book: Killers of the Flower Moon, you must please seek out Mean Spirit to get a fabulously told story with heart & grit with the Indigenous Peoples perspective.

(In further study, FYI, Hogan was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize with Mean Spirit.)

Liz_M I read this years ago, well before Killers of the Flower Moon was a thing. Eye opening and well written! 1mo

BkClubCare @Liz_M - thank you for your comment. I was introduced to this title when the movie for Flower Moon was being discussed somewhere online 😉 and was said to be BETTER. I am looking forward to it. 1mo

Dust Bowl Girls: The Inspiring Story of the Team That Barnstormed Its Way to Basketball Glory | Lydia Reeder

pick

A book club read, it was interesting and a great history lesson. I enjoyed the pictures of the women peppered throughout. I prefer historical fiction to actual history, and this could‘ve been a fun read but the style was very factual and somewhat boring. Women‘s basketball, all female sports really, owe these amazing women huge thanks for the role they had in advancing sports for women. Book #20 in 2024

Nine nominations...zero take homes, yet there was still a wonderful win (as in a winning performance) for this film at the 2024 Oscars: the Scott George and the Osage Singers Perform 'Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)'

Wow, Beautiful 👏🤩👍.
