This book, Sabrina and Corina was beautiful to listen to but painful to comprehend. Each story was entangled with the most painful parts of life. The stories were especially important to me because I lived in Colorado for over 3 years. Every monument or part of Denver that was named I have visited. I never knew the history of Denver in this way. I was told bits and pieces before but I never gave it much thought.

The whole time I read these stories, I kept hearing the word ERASURE in my mind. All of the women in these stories were trying to find their identities and face some hard truths. Some of these stories were easier to digest than others. Some just broke my heart. I am a storyteller and I love to read how other people tell stories.

The stories that impacted me the most were Sugar and Babies, Sisters, Remedies, Cheesman Park, Any Further West, All Her Names, and especially Ghost Sickness!
