natcat's review against another edition

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced

4.5

A hard read, upsetting and emotional, but well-written, well-researched, and very important. I hadn’t realized the sheer depressing scope of the murderer and missing indigenous women in Canada before reading this book. I am both sad and angry after having finished it. My only very minor quibble is I wasn’t the biggest fan of the structure of the book, which jumped around a lot.
