Top read of 2024! Dark but not gratuitous. Amazing exploration of contemporary Native American culture, community ties. Plotted very well.

This book was spectacular, a deep evolution of character, community, and finding healing among unimaginable pain. I think This one will be perfect for fans of All My Rage. 

This was such a unique plot and the framing for the mystery investigation was one I haven't Come across in a ya book before. And even though it was a mystery I was just as deeply invested in the everyday lives of the characters and loved them just as deeply.  

Trigger warnings: domestic abuse leading to murder (on page), ptsd flashbacks and grief, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW), rape, drug use and abuse.

I really enjoyed learning about the culture through the main character. The story itself felt a little too convoluted at times, and the voice was young (as it should be, since this was YA. I’m just not the intended audience)
