Bad Cree by Jessica Johns

4.0

BAD CREE follows a young Cree woman, Mackenzie, whose nightmares of her late sister emerge in her waking life. Mackenzie musters up the courage to confide in her family which forces them to reckon with their dark past. This is a haunting and atmospheric character-driven tale that blends horror with supernatural elements. The author’s writing is sharp and thought-provoking while beautifully tying Cree culture, lore, and language into the story. A remarkable, women-centric debut novel that skillfully weaves threads of trauma, familial bonds, human resilience, self-discovery, and so much heart. Thank you, thank you @doubledaybooks for my #gifted copy!
