British Columbiana: A Memoir by Josie Teed
5.0
Josie Teed tells her own story of working at a national historic site in Northern BC, describing her experiences and interactions in concise and sometimes hilarious prose. She is painfully honest about her emotions, ups and downs, and the awkwardness of being isolated 24/7 with an eclectic group of strangers. Josie feels lost, a common feeling for her age. As a mother of two twenty-something women, I found her reflections on friendship, dating and finding yourself so relevant and endearing. More than once I wanted to give her a hug. This book is vulnerable, sweet and funny all at once. I look forward to reading more from Josie in the future. Many thanks to Dundurn Press for the copy, which I greatly enjoyed.
