Description: Follow @AmeriesBookClub on IG, and join me and Tony Birch on my IGLIVE (@Amerie) April 1 at 1pm PST/4pm EST. Bring your questions! Tony Birch weaves a heartbreaking yet hopeful story of an aboriginal woman who refuses to let the government destroy the little family she has left. Bitingly humorous, grandmother Odette Brown is a force, but not so armored that a reader cannot glimpse the most vulnerable parts of herself. I worried for Odette and her granddaughter, Sissy, unsure if the next page might cause my heart to ache or warm. At times fairytale-esque in its presentations of good and evil, of love and hate, I found myself flying through the story until I reached its satisfying conclusion. #AmeriesBookClub #ReadWithAmerie @Amerie @AmeriesBookClub @harperviabooks #TonyBirch #TheWhiteGirl 📚 ABOUT TONY BIRCH Tony Birch is the author of three novels: the bestselling The White Girl; Ghost River, which won the Victorian Premier’s Literary Award for Indigenous Writing; and Blood, which was shortlisted for the Miles Franklin Award.
