Heart Berries: A Memoir by Terese Marie Mailhot

dark emotional reflective sad slow-paced

5.0

This book has won many awards for a reasons! Poetic and lyrical reflections filled with love, heartbreak, toxic relationships, darkness and the harsh realities of Teresa’s life as a Salish woman. I’ve never read a memoir quite like this one, that is written almost in prose, using beautiful language to portray such dark themes. This book might only be about 130 pages, but her story was so dense, that each sentence made me stop and reflect.
