This book is a warm hug on a cold day. It’s a kiss on the forehead from someone you love. It’s holding hands for the first time with a crush. The prose is sparse but beautiful. It’s a queer, indigenous coming of age story that deals with cultural belonging and first love and navigating queerness in spaces that don’t necessarily feel welcoming. I adored this book.
