Reservation Blues by Sherman Alexie began differently than most of his books. It followed a couple people from the reservation who obtained a magical guitar and so they started a band. The band was mildly successful, failing at the last minute like so many plots of Alexi's. It was heart wrenching and it taught me a lot I didn't know about reservation life like HUD housing, commodity food, etc. I am glad I read it but it wasn't the best book I've read by him so far.
