4.4 AVERAGE


Really well done, a bit of a genre bender, part thriller, part love story, own voices realistic fiction. A bit trigger-y. Narrator is perfect on the audio.

The storyline was kinda cheese but there was loads of interesting cultural info that made it worthwhile 

I went into this book without a single clue of what it was about (and I think you should too!), and it somehow managed to exceed all of my expectations still. 

This really had it all: suspense, mystery, friendship, even a little bit of romance- and I ate up every second of it! Throughout the book, I had a few theories about who was responsible for everything that was happening, but I was completely wrong, and it turned out to be even more complex than I originally thought. I really enjoyed Daunis' character and how devoted to/involved with a community that didn't always accept her she was. I also appreciated how the author didn't shy away from showing the long-lasting effects of colonization and challenging the reader's perception of native people. I thought this was a beautifully written story, and I am looking forward to reading more by this author.

I know I'm a little late to the party, but I can't recommend this book enough. If you've somehow managed to also go this long without reading it, go pick it up immediately!
