A story of hope, resilience, and finding strength in your roots. Frenchie and his brother are on the run in a post-apocalyptic world where white people can no longer dream so they hunt the indigenous folks who still can. This was a heartbreaking yet healing coming of age story that will gut you to your core. It gave me goosebumps and brought me to tears. Just an amazing read.
