I had some problem in the beginning of this book, i think it was because it jumped in time. But after talking to my grandma about the book i started to really enjoy it. And wow i read it fast in the end, but it also took a while.

This was a beautiful story about prejudice, self-reliance, love and the beauty in nature and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Kya’s story was so moving and it made me sad and happy all at once. It was a beautiful book!
