Good subtle lore! This was a rewarding read. Magical realism, indigenous perspective, complicated family dynamics and darker elements without feeling triggering or too heavy, intersectional cultural  awareness. 

The narrator has a gentle soothing voice, that fits the FMC, even though it’s third person it feels immersive.
