There were parts of this book that left me breathless with rage and heartbreak - Jen Ferguson did not shy away from depicting racism and anti-Indigenous sentiment. I appreciated the way she sat with the ugliness and then showed how family & community can be tools against them.
I was disgusted by Lou's father and really happy with the outcome of that storyline. Honestly, really loved this book!
Moderate: Racism, Violence, and Racial slurs
