This book is centered around four American Indian friends that were together on a hunting trip gone wrong. It tells stories on that time period but mainly 10 years later, after the incident. In the later years we learn more about each individual and where their lives have taken them.
I had a hard time with the writing style. I had to constantly reread paragraphs just to get the gist of what the author was meaning. That made it very hard to settle down comfortably into the book. Eventually, more than halfway through the book, I was able to adjust to the writing style. There were a lot of parts that just seemed to stretch on that were quite boring for me though. Made it hard for me to pick up the book and stick with it. Lots of pages on playing basketball. Which, if that is your thing, you'll probably enjoy it. It was not for me.
Now, when the craziness happened, it was over the top! I couldn't put the book down. It was brutal and heart-wrenching. The story line itself was different and creepy. Enjoyed that and I enjoyed the characters. Especially Lewis, Cass and Denorah.
So it puts me about middle way on how I felt about the book. Parts I liked and parts I didn't. It seems everyone gets different takes on it so it might just be one you need to pick up and see how it makes you feel.
