I wanted to read this book because it’s an own voices story and I can’t recall ever reading a book written by an Indigenous Author. So when I started reading the book it started out slow but I decided to stick with it and things picked up as the story progressed. Then the book slows down again and all hope is pretty much lost. There is a huge emphasis on basketball and the story goes into great detail about the game. I’m a sports fan but it was overkill. At times while I was reading I felt like the writing was a little disjointed. Some parts left me confused and the chapters would end abruptly. I also wouldn’t consider this book to be a horror story in my opinion. I was expecting to be scared as I read and that didn’t happen. I felt like I was reading a supernatural book. As much as I wanted to love this book sadly it didn’t work out for me which is a bummer.
