i really, really liked this book! following the life of ayla as she grows up amongst the clan was quite an experience. the way this is written is interesting; the characters aren’t as advanced mentally as you or i, but the way the author has written them makes us able to understand most of what they’re saying. please heed the content warnings though, they’re there for a good reason. i look forward to reading the next book!
