The Beet Queen by Louise Erdrich

challenging dark funny reflective sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Sort of an odd, disjointed mess compared with Love Medicine, which is kind of weird since Love Medicine is a collection of short stories turned into a novel and this is a proper novel.

Have to wonder how much of this was influenced/developed by Michael Dorris.
