Firekeeper's Daughter

Basic coming of age story. The write up is basically correct, but there are not a lot of deaths. Takes a couple of interesting turns and that is what makes it a decent story worth finishing..I listened to the audio book and it was performed very well.

I really enjoyed this book. I appreciated its representation of indigenous themes, characters, and settings. Readers should be aware though that there are scenes of murder/death and sexual violence in this book and one of the main themes is the destructive power of drug addiction. If you are able to handle that, then I think you will really enjoy this book.
