Apparently I didn't read much in June. 🤔 My favorites were the Hillerman books, I need to get the next one.

This was great! But also quite sad- small spoilers in comment. I'm glad I picked this series up again. I read them long ago (I was in HS, I think) and I've always remembered liking them and, upon rereading a couple, I can say I very much enjoy Hillerman's writing and I like being in Joe Leaphorn's head.

Today I was, both physically and figuratively, in the Navajo Nation (reservation) and at Four Corners Monument. 🧡

I enjoy reading Tony Hillerman‘s novels because I have a deep appreciation for the Indigenous Peoples and their culture. Hunting Badger takes place mostly in the southern canyons of Utah. The robbery of a casino has retired Lieutenant Leaphorn involved with Navajo Police Officer Jim Chee along with the FBI searching for the thieves. The search turns deadly before the manhunt comes to an end. 4/5⭐️
