What a stunning debut novel by Angeline Boulley!

"Some boats are for the river and some are for the ocean."

Of course, I would have a soft spot for this book:
Set in Michigan? Check.
Native American? Check.
Strong female characters? Check.

The Firekeeper's Daughter is steeped in family drama and unexpected twists. Will Daunis, the product of two star-crossed lovers, discover what is going on in her community before someone else gets hurt?

Although I enjoyed reading this, the book felt a bit too long, and the person responsible was predictable.

2 Tips:
1) Get the audiobook. Unless you can pronounce Miskwamakwe indizhinikaaz.
2) Book #2 in the series just dropped, Warrior Girl Unearthed. It was published May 2, 2023, and it earned a coveted star by Kirkus Reviews.

Jonathan K (Max Outlier) Nice..I'd added this to my library list months ago though I will be reading it instead :)


Debbie Jo I just finished listening to the book while sometimes following along with my copy. I agree that it’s a great way to experience the book as the author intended. I’m looking forward to the second book.
