This was a solid read as a reflective look at colonial trauma and healing for Indigenous young adults. As someone not Indigenous I thought it was eye-opening and informative. The books centers Indigenous readers and finding hope, healing, and background about a history of violence and identity. The format was very readable and there was lots of straightforward passages with lots of graphics, text boxes and bullet points, as well as warnings for difficult topics, and lots of quotations from Indigenous folks highlighting a lot of experiences and feelings. There was a nice list of resources and references at the end as well. This is a must-buy for high school libraries and a must-read for all educators.
