I have never read Native American fiction before and honestly, and sadly, I don't know much of their life. This was a good look into what I imagine is life for children in the foster care system. Azure and Rainy are very good characters and I was always rooting for them. I think the author did a great job filling you in on important backgrounds of the characters. I loved how the book was divided into 7 parts which were each different places in the girl's lives and each part had chapters. Those chapters were each told by a different character, which I feel is crucial in order to get some back story. I also appreciated the family tree since it involved a big family. This is a light, quick and easy read. It's worth it.
