4.4 AVERAGE


Extremely well done but also very intense heavy subject material. 

Fantastic read. The first few chapters were harder to get into because they set the stage for the whole book. Once you got past those it all clicked into place and I didn’t want to put this book down. Great twists and turns. Educational about the awful gut wrenching realities and hardships native women face. It’s so important to learn about the inequalities and abuse that happens so that it can no longer be ignored. Loved the way I learned things throughout the book with educational facts and stories artfully weaved in. This book was a thrill to read mixed with a bit of romance.

I struggled a little bit with this one in the beginning because my attention span got lost on the many characters but once I got into it I could not put it down and I can't stop thinking about it even after I have finished it. Definitely a MUST read if you're a non-indigenous reader trying to diversify your reading list because the heart and soul of Daunis's culture is so vivid you will feel it viscerally. I loved it.

loved this book! super addictive and fast paced from the start!! i loved the way that i could follow the story but it wasn’t super predictable and it still kept me guessing! the last 100 pages felt like a hurricane. love love love this book!!!!
