I immediately fell in love with Daunis as a character. She's very involved in her family and her community and she loves them all dearly even though she is constantly being pulled two different ways because her mom is white and her father was Indians. She is both and because of that has certain privileges and is expected to be one of the few people that make it out of her area and get to have a 'nice life' as her auntie called it.
Daunis though like so many teenagers are having to make a tough choice between leaving her family who is going through a hard time, or to stay and put her plans on hold for a year, she still has time to decide thankfully. All of her plans might be changed though in a blink of an eye when her best friend's ex-boyfriend pulls a gun on them.

Overall I could not get enough of this preview and where it stopped literally had me saying nooooo, come on I need more now out load. I can't believe we are left on such a cliff-hanger with months to go before the release.
I loved the writing of this story and all of the characters. Learning more about Indigenous heritage is something I've been doing recently and this book sounds like a fun read that deals with some tough topics at the same time.
