A Sky Without Stars by Linda Clare Quilts of Love Kindle Fire HDX Giveaway and Book Review

About the Book

A Sky Without Stars | A Quilts of Love Book
In 1951, Frankie Chasing Bear is a Lakota caught between cultures. She wants to raise her son Harold to revere his Lakota heritage, but she knows he will need to become as a white man to succeed. After his father’s killed in a barroom brawl, Harold and Frankie move to Arizona, where she begins a Lakota Star pattern quilt for Harold with tribal wisdom sung, sewn and prayed into it.
She distrusts Christians, as her own parents were forced to convert at an Indian School, until she meets BIA agent Nick Vandergriff, a half-Lakota who’s also caught between cultures. Nick must convince Frankie that white men and Christians aren’t all bad as he tries to win her heart in order to put the stars back into her sky.

My review;

Frankie Chasing Bear has a huge problem to struggle with. How will she be able to raise her son in their Lakota background alone? This is the story of a mother's love for her child and wanting him to have the best of both worlds, his new life and the life with his family background that he deserves. She begins to make a quilt to let him know about the family ancestors  he has. Because she is Lakota, Frankie Chasing Bear is not sure if she should get close to a man who is both Christian and Lakota. When you read this book you are able to take a glimpse into what it was like living in 1951 for a Lakota woman to have a new start. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Litfuse Publicity Company and all opinions are my own.
