Yea this book absolutely WRECKED me in the best way possible. Absolutely no notes. It was BEAUTIFULLY written and I learned so much about Indigenous American culture and the specific struggles they face (especially with the government), a lot of which I found to be very relatable as a POC. The coming of age story being told in this context is so unique and insanely well-developed, and I loved how everything wrapped up in the end. Will 1000% be picking up the sequel/spin-off book!
