Beautiful, heartbreaking, devastating, incredible! Surprised me so many times! The main character was wonderful, as was the scene setting of Alaska. The kind of book that just lives in you. A story about absolutely unconditional love. 
Highly recommend but warn that your heart will be ripped out and stomped on before the end!!!
I listened to the audio book which was brilliant but this is one I am sure I would have been equally as enthralled by the physical book.

A beautifully emotional story. I really enjoyed the coming of age aspect and how it was mainly told from Leni's pov. I loved the community aspect and the wild landscape of Alaska. It is slow paced, but as it is mostly character focused that worked for the story. Some of the side characters and their interactions fell a little flat for me. But I thought the family dynamic and emotions were done really well.
