Wow wow wow. I really loved this book. I loved the creation of a mythic island where colonialization did not touch, and the reckoning with realities in our society. I loved the electric mix of cultures. I loved the teenagers learning who they are and coming into themselves. I loved how love and loss and hope and betrayal are handled. Beautiful book.
