3.0

Decent storyline, mostly sets up the rest of the series, I presume. Suze is very strong as a character and narrator – including her faults. It is a bit dated socially which got grating around the midpoint.

Content Warnings

Minor: Medical content and Violence

The homophobia is verbal and portrayed negatively, but the f slur is used and the behavior is trivialized. Most of the book is set in a Catholic mission and there are brief descriptions of Catholic portrayals of Native Americans. There are some injuries and scenes in the hospital.
