It was an okay book.
I had higher expectations, as I heard a lot about this release and thought I'd give it a try.

I had started this book on audio a while ago and didn’t get very far. Much better reading a physical copy. Elsie and phoenix’s stories were really hard to read. A very well written book depicting the generational struggles so many of our Indigenous Canadian have been forced to face.
