I absolutely loved this book. Fantastic building of the characters. I was able to visualize life in Alaska so well based on the author’s writing. So well done!

I am not sure I agree with the title and I definitely think the book descriptions is misleading and does not do the book justice. This book is about the growth and development of Leni, a 14 year old girl devoted to her family and the impromptu decision her father shakes her world with to move them to the wilderness and isolation of small town Alaska. We follow Leni and how the relationship between her and her father, her mother and her first love shapes her. This book was enjoyable in the discovery of character development but it should be advised there are many sensitive topic triggers.
