Fire Song by Adam Garnet Jones

5.0

I think this book is exceptional. Ownvoices m/m indigenous representation is so important. The book is beautifully written and deeply emotional, with a nuanced exploration of Native spirituality and culture, poverty, suicide, and homophobia. It's dark, but ultimately hopeful. I can't speak to the authenticity of the representation, but I can say that the story felt very grounded in the setting and the culture of life on the reserve.
