Wow, this was SO good. I was in the camp of enjoy but not love for Firekeeper's Daughter and this book just truly blew me away. I think Angeline Boulley is an author who just keeps getting better and I'm so glad that she's getting the attention she deserves.

This book traverses both the coming of age story of a teenager unconvinced she wants to finish school or be engaged with the world and the fraught political landscape of reparations of Native American items to their tribal owners. Perry at the center of this story is this fierce, strong, smart, prickly character that I couldn't help but fall in love with. She felt so real and I couldn't help but.root for her as she decided to truly own her heritage and passion for preserving her tribes history.

I loved how Angeline shared so much culture and history with her readers in this book while bringing her characters to life and showing small connections to Firekeeper's Daughter. Angeline is a true master storyteller and I cannot wait to read whatever she writes next.
