Denna bok var självklart extra speciell för mig då den kom nära på mitt samiska hjärta. Det är en brutalt ärlig och fruktansvärt vacker skildring av livet som renskötare i norra Sverige.

Jag har ända sedan jag var liten varit fascinerad av Ann-Helens Laestadius röst som författare och sätt att skriva. Denna bok leverade samma typ av klass speciellt när det gällde Elsas röst som nioåring. Den tog i hjärtat lite extra.

Jag tyckte däremot inte om sista delen lika mycket och tycker att slutet borde varit utformad på ett annat sätt.

En bok som ALLA i Sverige borde läsa.

Och Laestadius vilken pionjär hon har varit och fortsätter att vara!
