A lovely YA book (not sure if it’s supposed to be YA but it reads that way to me) dealing with dysfunctional family relationships and community and what we’ll do to survive. I cried three times, so we’ll call this one cathartic as well. The plot wraps ups a little too neatly but if you like rugged wilderness settings and want to feel some things but not be left in despair: this is a good one.
