I am in awe. This book was incredible, and it had a powerful message. It explores the relationship between humans and animals. But also the connection between humans and nature. It was a beautiful story but also very difficult to read at times. I feel like anyone who reads this would take something away from it. Also, I couldn’t help but think of the song Colors of the Wind by Judy Kuhn while reading this, which made it much more memorable.

There are many themes in this book which makes for a very complex story. In the first 2/3 of the book they are integrated almost seamlessly and it feels like a very absorbing, quick read. However, when it came to pulling together everything towards an ending, the story got a bit lost. There are many serious themes that might be triggering to readers, and these might not have been resolved healthily or in a way that adds to the conversation or experience of the reader. At best this leads to a frustrating read and at worst, it promotes dangerous ideas rather than seeking to heal from them.
