I would give this book a 3.5, almost 4 stars. I loved the poetry (which is a surprise to me as I'm generally not a poetry person), and Harjo's life story is rich and captivating.
My main conflict with the book is the way it's structured. The story is told in a non-linear way, so often I will get intrigued, then we will switch to years behind or ahead, then switch again, and it feels hard for me to keep track of what is going on.
If you enjoy non-linear stories, this will definitely pique your interest, however if you find non-linear stories hard to keep track of, reading this book may be a bit difficult.
