5.0

Utterly compelling  story made that must much better by Erdrich’s writing style. What could have been an overdone, overused, cliche dystopian slow burn was turned into a beautiful work of reflection on motherhood, religion, humanity, and race. The characters each felt unique, lovable in their own ways, I kept turning pages not just to see what would happen next but to hear their thoughts.  

Overall, subtleties of this novel are perhaps my favorite. A truly unique well crafted story.
