A review by tinyshedchan
The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven by Sherman Alexie

3.0

A generous 3/5 stars - this book isn't a genre I would normally pick up, but I had to read it for school (to teach). I think a lot the themes are important and it does a good job of highlighting the Native American experience. It was great for students to identify commonalities between themselves and the stories in the book - racism, bullying, alcohol, culture, tradition, family dynamics, relationships, death, etc. That being said, I wasn't a huge fan of the writing style and I am going to consider this more of a 'learning' type read rather than a 'enjoyment' read.
