It was fine. It reminds me of other books that I like a lot. But I'd say the main difference between the books I like and this one would be the main character. Didn't care for Kya and so didn't care for the book.

No interest in seeing the movie.

I had put off reading this because I tend to be let down by the books that have a lot of hype around them, but this was an enjoyable read.

Slow start but picked up pace around half way through.  The author really brought out the pain caused by abandonment and also the prejudices Kya was subject to.

The connection Kya had with the natural world around her was lovely to read.

Tough start to the story but as Kya grows the story deepens and becomes enjoyable and intriguing. Some stressful and sad moments towards the end but a good ending.

Woah... It didn't hook me at the beginning, but the farther I got in, the more I loved it

Content Warning that wasn't listed when I checked, but I would have liked to know beforehand:

There is a romantic/sexual relationship between a 14 year old girl and an 18 year old boy. If it were, say a 20 and 24 year old, I wouldn't bother mentioning it. But the fact that she was only 14 did make me uncomfortable.
