Crazy Horse's Girlfriend by Erika T. Wurth

3.0

Profound book exploring the lives of four young urban Indians living in Denver. The book is centered on the life of Margaritte, who lives with her mother, drunk and abusive father, and her young twin sisters. As she enters her junior year, she meets Mike and they begin to date.

The book explores issues of identity around Native Americans, though it doesn't revolve around that issue. It focuses on how young people grapple with big issues without being preachy or a morality tale.

Good read.
