Man, what a great read. The story was incredible, and I found myself thinking about it throughout the day. Also a nice introduction to indigenous culture of the Great Lakes region, with some thought provoking commentary on the history and remnants of racism and oppression of native peoples. It’s YA, but so sophisticated and well-done. Would love to read more by this author.

I love when I read a book that is unlike any book I’ve ever read before. This book opened up new worlds because I’ve not really read any contemporary books with Native people as the main characters. Learning about Native culture and customs through this novel was a breathtaking experience. The plot is believable, the characters choose paths that are unexpected, and the ending is sad but gives you a sense of finality as well.
