4.5/5
I am surprised how much I enjoyed this book! I saw it on goodreads, sounded good and so I ordered it from my library. Not expecting much by any means but I was pleasantly surprised! Love finding hidden gems like these!
Katie, the main character, lives a pretty miserable life until one day she is taken captive by savages. There she has to adjust and soon learns that she really hasn't been captured, in a sense. I enjoyed all the characters, particularly Syawa. The plot is a little far-fetched in the sense of everything melding and ending up together. But I've always been a lover for the whole 'fate' and things working out as they must type of thing.
By no means is this a blow-your-pants-off amazing book. I can see why a lot of people would find it slow, the whole story is when the characters are traveling. But I didn't mind it, I like it a lot. Also for some people this book can be real a tear jerker. I certainly got sad but it takes a lot for me to shed a few tears.
I don't know how historically accurate this book is about the Native American's or if the author just made shit up as she went. Either way I liked the customs they had.
All in all I enjoyed it greatly and wouldn't mind having a copy of it myself.
