This book was very interesting on the view it showed of the aboriginal culture and stereotypes. Very well written book, with some curious stories as it challenges the societal belief of their culture! Definitely worth your while to check out!

Such a horrible book... did not get it at all. Seemed so pointless. Definitely would never have picked this up on my own - Can't believe I had to read this for school.

I personally had a hard time focusing at times as there transitions between sections of the book were far from seemless.

King's writing is just so damned good. This isn't as mind-blowing as [b:Green Grass Running Water|46277|Green Grass, Running Water|Thomas King|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170319801s/46277.jpg|45411]; nothing much by way of a plot, and not as hard an emotional punch, but it's funny and has excellent flow.

There’s not much of a plot in this book but it’s a quick read. Nothing too heavy although it’s also not very lighthearted. Everything about this book feels gloomy and monotone but also nostalgic and content. Overall a pretty average book.

I don’t know why I kept reading this book. Maybe at 50 pages I felt like I’d read too much, and it is a pretty quick read, so I just thought I’d stick it through? Can’t say as I enjoyed it all that much. It wasn’t terribly well-written, but Harlen made me chuckle once every 80 pages or so.
