Trickster Drift by Eden Robinson

5.0

This book is so many things, all of them wonderful. It's part First Nations fantasy, part coming of age, partly about struggling with inner demons (and in this case also outer demons!) and part struggles with family. I was immediately drawn back into Jared's world and his daily struggles. You just really feel for him and want him to have some good things in his life for once. As he starts to get them, other parts of his life unravel faster and faster and my heart breaks for him. I love that Robinson made this into a series and I'm so excited to read the next book and really, everything she's ever written. Her prose is so touching and beautiful. There are times when I want to capture a sentence and hold on to it and admire the beauty of her words like snuggling under a warm blanket in winter.
