This collection was so good. Not every single story was 5 stars, but on the whole it was amazing. There's humor and love and strength here, and some of these also just hit me really hard. The characters are alive even though we don't spend that much time with them. Most of these stories are set in the Pacific Northwest (there's a beautiful beaded Mt. Hood on the cover), but these stories are familiar to me despite growing up in the midwest. But there's also some fun unexpected turns here -like the Nez Perce retelling of Antigone or the story about creating NDN monopoly.
