I LOVED this book! I was completely engrossed and couldn’t put it down. And then, when I realized the author is Indigenous, my mind was blown because I could see all the connections/metaphors. Less sapphic than I was hoping for, but still such a good story, I can’t wait to read the 2nd one.

shallow/underinformed consideration of enslavement, genocide, alcoholism, starvation without robust characterization or worldbuilding to distract me

DNF. Powered through 20% of this book, but it was the biggest snooze fest. Nothing happened and nothing could interest me enough to keep reading.
