The magical realism involving ghosts lent a dreamy quality to this book. I’d love to read more about this world.

Loved reading a book with an indigenous protagonist! The story itself was entertaining and the main characters felt like teenagers (i.e. making not-well-thought-through teenage decisions). The writing was a bit bland at times and some metaphors felt a bit too overt, but it didn't bother me too much.
