Their First Thanksgiving by Stella Bagwell
Manage episode 308366323 series 2522956
GOBBLE GOBBLE YO!
He's America's Farmer. She's America's Guilt. Together they are our tryptophan turd - Stella Bagwell's Their First Thanksgiving. Seriously, y'all, this book is awful. He gaslights her, she's got a white savior complex, every woman in his family puts a solid 80 hours of work into Thanksgiving for five people... it is a damned mess. We burned the book in protest. Do you know what it takes to get two librarians to participate in a book burning? NOW YOU DO.
The only real content warning for this one is a real "there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime" situation even though a white dude totally wrote that Snows of Kilimanjaro book. And gross gender norms. And a truly ridiculous amount of pie.
