bookcook 's review for:

Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley

slow-paced

---

I shouldn't rate this book because I didn't technically finish it but also this is getting too much praise. I got 80% through. And I'm fucking done. It was one thing for it to be like meandering and confusing because the author doesn't write in like chronological order. It's like our main character is doing something and then she's about to go do something else and then it flashes forward and then she reflects on the things she was about to go do and it's like where the fuck are we even in this story? 

But then check your trigger warnings because she is

raped and when she tells her FBI boyfriend about it, he scolds her for going limp and for putting herself in a compromising situation.

are you fucking kidding me?! So I looked at the end and everybody sucks

her best friend's ex-boyfriend shoots her, her old hockey coach is part of the the drug ring, The boy who assaulted her (not the rape that was different!!!) Is also in the drug ring along with her brother!!!!

every single man in this story is such a fucking letdown. Good luck to everybody. I'm fucking done with this book and I'm claiming it is being finished so I can knock this stupid fucking category off the 52 book challenge and I got far enough and I suffered and God damn it I earned it
