Well that was a massive bummer. Literally all I ask is to get to read books about m/m romance that don't screw over EVERY SINGLE FEMALE CHARACTER, is that really too much to ask?? ARGH. Don't get me wrong, #ownvoices books about indigenous queer characters are undoubtedly needed and there are harsh things about that world that need to be addressed, but my GOD did this have to be such a downer... I like hard-hitting contemporary YA as much as the next gal, but this had way too many bummers and shitty twists with not enough catharsis. The latter half was just such a drastic downhill slide and the whole thing left me quite unhappy. I also didn't really like the way the audiobook was read so that certainly didn't help. Blah.
