I loved this book, for many reasons. First off, it tells you how bad racisim can get in some states or countries. You never really know its that bad really, but this book opened my eyes on that. This E-book has Native American culture mixed in it, from the past to the present. I loved the way Wallace incorrurated that into her book. I loved learning about new cultures and how they came to be. I loved Steve, so it broke my heart to see what happens to him in the end. Overall I loved this book, it was amazing... Go read it!
