This masterpiece was also praised by Michelle Jacobs of The US Review of Books, who states that “With its rich descriptive detail and strong character development, Colson’s story is powerful and inspiring. Teen readers will strongly relate to this moving coming-of-age story’s familial issues, identity crisis, and overall conflict. Colson also perfectly captures the Native American culture and the wonder of their ways and beliefs. With clear-eyed prose and the portrayal of authentic relationships, Colson depicts a teen’s life on the edge of despair but also in the beautiful throes of possibility and realization. Nhaya’s journey is adventurous and dangerous, revelatory and riveting, and an open-hearted addition to young adult fiction.”
