Didn't get stick out of me besides just being another read. The setting and mood are well executed, but the storyline was lacking. I keep thinking of the missed potential this story and book could have had if only it had multiple point of views. It would have made the story feel more real in the way that there's no actual truth. Just people talking about what they know.

My favorite parts of the book were the indigenous stories told and how those reflect the situation they were in. They added more depth to the character's village and their backgrounds.
