Wanting a short novella to read ?


Harvest Moon
Review: Harvest Moon - Krista Ball
When I first turned the pages of this novella , I thought it may have been a werewolf or supernatural novel in that sense as when you think of Harvest Moon with the Full Moon in the background that's what comes to my mind. However, alas that was not the case in Krista Ball's book "Harvest Moon". This story takes us into the world of the American Indians , a culture that I normally don't encounter when Ive read books, only briefly in Patricia Briggs writings and few Christian Historical novels. The story centers around the main character - a women named The Dancing one who after her last two husbands died she was renamed "Cursed One". One day , she is to take a sacred bundle down to the river, wanting to end her life - she decides to pray to the spirits . The spirit ends up turning her into a man , it is now that she must live her life as a male. Along her journey, she/he is injured and taken into care by another Outcast from an opposing tribe called Bearclaw. It seems he has been outcasted due to his sexuality choices as he is bisexual and attracted to men and women. Which for me was weird seeing it in a novel , as many cast their characters has liking either or but rarely both. As the novel goes on, it seems that their paths have intertwined for a reason , however will Dancing One be stuck in a man's body forever or will Bearclaw break the curse she has placed on herself ?
