A Memoir:
Finding Self Through Friendship
This memoir holds within its calloused hands the comradery women long for, set against vivid and enduring depictions of Montana character. Katie Dawn shares the hilarity, haunting, and healing of her life experiences, set among the close-knit community of five women that helped shape her – The Posse. Monthly gatherings for Wax Night become the backbone of their friendships and offer the freedom to bare all. Katie’s writing style balances sass and sarcasm with deep and raw vulnerability as she articulates the distilled feelings of trauma and gratitude often found too difficult to express. As far-reaching as the Big Sky, and yet as intimate as a conversation by a glimmering campfire, these pages become friends that remain with a reader long after the last page is savored
