angeline boulley is a gift with her words — so educational yet captivating and heart wrenching all at once. I love the way she develops flawed characters and allows them to grow and flourish within a book, and even across books. this book is a beautiful exploration of indigenous storytelling, history, wisdom, and resilience, and has just the right amount of suspense and mystery to keep you on the edge of your seat.

I found this young-adult book fascinating.  This author has some of the characters from her first book in this second book, but it can be read independently.  I knew nothing about Native American reparations of their ancestors and objects from museums and colleges before this story.  The added mystery of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) made this story one that kept my interest from the beginning until the end.  I wish there were books like this when I was in high school.
