This book is really important and the history is so interesting, but I just couldn’t get into it. Something in the story telling didn’t work for my brain and I found myself bored and wishing I was done reading it. For sure there were some intense and suspenseful parts of this book, but there was also a lot of mundanity that didn’t draw me in. 

CW: suicide and so much animal death

I loved this book. It was the first time I really learned about Sámi people, communities, and way of life. The storytelling was tense but beautiful. I left this book with a new knowledge about the Sámi and some of the issues their communities experience, as well as a passion to inform others and join the fight for Sámi rights.

As important as it is gripping, this book sums up what it means to advocate for yourself, your culture, your mental health, and your own land without wallowing into sentimentality.

Tragic and sad, paints vivid picture of what happens when hate gets in the way and is passed down through generations.
