- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

A beautifully told story with ancestral magic, dangerous villains, and rogarous!
Some chapters were devoted to different perspectives which gave a dreamy quality to the storytelling. And quite a page turner. I feel like this book read me.
Warning: Prepare for some darkness and cruelty. I was surprised by how hard hitting parts of this book were.

I just finished this and I didn't really like it e it was well written, I just don't feel like I enjoyed the plot very much. It was spooky and that was kind of tense and cool, but I feel like plot devices kept cropping up conveniently and there were a lot of unresolved issues. The antagonist felt too omnipotent to be triumphed so easily.
I did like the allegory of what effect Christianity has on Indigenous communities though, it's not often I see the dominant religion be painted so villainously (maybe I just haven't read enough books that do that, now that I say it out loud I feel like maybe its a lot more common in literature than I think)
