I’ve been mulling over this post for a week. What can I say about this 2007 National Book Award winner that has not already been said—better—by others? My conclusion: nothing. But I can link you over to the words that most inspired me to pick the book up.
Read what Colleen at Chasing Ray had to say.
And then read what Sherman Alexie himself had to say when he was interviewed at Finding Wonderland.
If you needed just one more reason to pick up this book, check out this challenge from Melissa at Booknut (thanks to Mitali Perkins for the link).
Still not convinced? My last offer: you can win a FREE copy of the book at the blog of YA author Lisa Schroeder. Hurry, because her contest ends today.
Now, go forth and read THE ABSOLUTELY TRUE DIARY OF A PART-TIME INDIAN. You simply must.
