Well-written and very interesting. I loved reading about a point of view that is not often heard from: indigenous, two spirit, sex-worker. But I’m not a huge fan of this type of character driven book. There is not much plot at all so it was hard for me to stay motivated to keep going. But it helped that I listened to the audiobook.
