I loved this book! It is so refreshing to read a YA fantasy book that deals with topics of colonialism, homophobia, sexism and discrimination against autistic people in such a clear and unequivocal way. I love the main character and the way the author grounds in her in her Indigenous culture. I found myself wanting a bit more of her inner world on occasion, and the ending felt a bit rushed, but overall would absolutely recommend this book.
Graphic: Ableism, Gun violence, Racism, Sexism, and Colonisation
