I love this series!! The art is stunning and instantly transports you into Echo's world. The story is moving and beautifully written. And that ending...I definitely teared up a little bit. I was so happy to see the "to be continued" at the end, and I'm so excited to see where this series is going next!

*I received this book from NetGalley in return for a honest review*

This graphic novel is the third in the "A Girl Called Echo" series about a girl (named Echo) living in modern day Manitoba who travels back in time to the age of Louis Riel and the Metis resistance. These stories are quite short, bu they do a good job of sharing important facts about a time period in Canadian history that my schooling just glimpsed over. I really enjoy the imagery throughout the book and it is a very easy read that also makes you think and learn a lot.

I really also enjoy that there is a timeline at the end to take you through what was going on throughout the story and the things that maybe weren't mentioned.

Overall this is a great series and I will be definitely reading more as they come out.

Update: It's #3 not #1! Well, I guess it would make more sense in order then...
For a first volume, it set the stage for a much bigger story. I'm not sure yet if the MC is having dreams or time traveling or what, as the drawn sequences are ambiguous.

AHHHHHH the art is so lovely, and Echo keeps breaking my heart

I am thankful there was a timeline at the end because my dumb ass couldn't tell what was going on at times 

Need the next part noooow
