"The only good Indian is a dead Indian."
Wow.
I've seen people gushing about this book, and all of it is true. SGJ writes with a pen so sharp, it'll slash you. The complexity and layers of the story, which do not complicate the reading experience; this book is a marvel.
And it's scary AF!!! I've more than once expected to see it lurking in the dark. It's gore-y, bloody and creepy and definitely a future re-read.
