I couldn't put this book down after I started reading!

I picked this book up not knowing what it was and not sure if I would like it or not. After I finished the novel, I went back and re-read my favorite chapters. I enjoyed everything--the characters, the sense of place on the reservation, and the writing style.

Gansworth is sure to become an important writer. One of the best first novels I've read in years.
