I really enjoyed the poetic writing of the book, I was constantly transfixed and wanting to read more.
I thought the integration of First Nations people, and their story telling was incredibly respectful and done so in an interesting way (recognizing I am not a First Nations individual).
The depiction of a domestic violence relationship was awfully good, it was heart wrenching to read, however an accurate depiction of what many experience.
I loved the artwork and small poetry throughout, and incorporation and Australian Natives
