A Two-Spirit Journey fills a critical gap in lesbian and Indigenous literature. Chacaby's story - related in simple and direct language - takes the reader through her story more or less chronologically, up to 2014 when it was published. Though it was difficult to read at times due to the hardships Chacaby has suffered, she shared great wisdom and perservance with her readers.
I also found the endnote about how the autobiography was constructed at the end to be very informative.
