Overall I feel like it was a really intriguing premise but between the pacing and the writing it wasn’t all that enjoyable to read.

I somehow managed to hold on through things that normally would have made me put the book down forever and it was so good. One of the most PERFECT uses of second-person I've encountered in a novel; a genius way to incorporate the slasher movie PoV-of-the-killer shots directly into the narrative.

Lewis and the teeth, hello???I also really appreciate being able to read a story with such a heavy influence from the Blackfeet culture. Not just for an understanding of the scarcity and injustice, but for the richness of their traditions, legends, lore, etc.
In short, I'm very glad I read this book and will be thinking of it for a while.

do not survive, unfortunately. None of themI loved it. All of the characters are really interesting, and you want to love the main four guys.
