Girl I follow on YouTube raved about this book and I can see why. Wowwww what a beautiful story. I absolutely fell in love with this family. I love books about Native American culture and this one definitely hits. Highly recommend!

3.5 stars. Well this was DARK, my friends. I can read about awful humans all live long day but thank goodness this is fiction because the graphic animal abuse and animal death was so unnecessary. This is a great story and it’s well written but I’ll never read another book from Tiffany.
