    If anybody ever reads "A Child Called It", it can be a bit life-changing, and it will make you appreciate your family forever. But it's gut-wrenching at times, so if you don't want put in a bad mood, don't read it.

    If you are interested in the Native American culture then
    " Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee " by Dee Brown is a must read.

    Anything by Lorenzo Carcaterra, he wrote sleepers which was made into a film. Paradise City is probably his best one
