Picking up right where The Marrow Thieves left off, it was fantastic to return to this world. I opted to listen to the audiobook this time, and I feel like I was even more immersed in the world. This might be a dystopian-esque world, but it parallels what is currently happening to the Native population. There were some really powerful moments, and man, by the end, I didn't want to stop listening. I needed to know what was going to happen next.

While The Marrow Thieves didn't necessarily need a sequel, I loved the way that the world was expanded. Honestly, I can't wait to see what else Dimaline comes up with.
