Thursday night book group: A Shocking and disturbing read!

A Shocking and disturbing read! This was the overall consensus of Thursday book club members who read Killers of The Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann.

The group drew many parallels with other horrific events in indigenous history. Lighter reads ahead!
