Despite the humorous storytelling, I couldn't help but feel incredibly sad about the fate of many Native Americans.Â

It was an okay read. Definitely quick and easy to read. I liked the exploration of what it means to be Native American and how the individual is always struggling with the community. There was some stuff that was uncomfortable—I can see why it’s a banned book—and some issues I wish were addressed better than they were, but overall it was an enjoyable read.Â
