I don't see much buzz about Miriam Toews in the media, but I'm really excited for her memoir to come out in August!! My family's of Mennonite heritage, and I see a lot of similarities in my family and the characters in her books. Women Talking was also the first time I've ever seen my surname in a novel, so that was cool.
I've read everything except Swing Low: A Life, which I'm still on the hunt for. I wanna find it before the new memoir releases 🙂
