A review by cleo_reads
Fire from the Sky by Moa Backe Åstot

4.25

Lovely, immersive queer YA about a 16 year old Sami reindeer herder trying to figure out who he is and how to fully be himself in his home village.

This is a gentle book - very much a slice of life type story. A lot is unsaid - in that way it’s very different from American novels. Definitely read the sample. 

The teens feel accurate, down to the mood swings and sulks and friendship drama- which I enjoyed and also found a bit stressful. This is why I don’t read a lot of YA.
