Sheine Lende is a YA urban fantasy and the prequel to Elatsoe (I do recommend reading Elatsoe first!) It has so many of the things I loved in Elatsoe -- ghost dogs, a self-assured MC, indigenous cultural elements, teenagers who are affirmed and trusted as leaders by the adults in their lives, and a bit of a mystery. The middle section of the book dragged a little bit for me but the ending made up for it. 

My thanks to NetGalley and Levine Querido for an e-arc of this book.
