I forgive me,
For doubting you.

Maybe a tribe isn't about fitting in, she thinks. Maybe it's not about the people you've know the longest. Maybe sometimes, it's just about the right place at the right time, and moving in the same direction, together.

I loved this and judging from the 1 and 2 star reviews all over the place my opinion isn't popular. I'm quick to drop books that I don't feel anything for so this isn't a case of me slugging this out to like it in the end, I loved this from the very beginning. Coutts's writing is beautiful. I was absorbed by the world she created and I loved her take on what people's reactions to the end of the world would be. I loved the path that each of these characters took and where each of their journeys ended.

I had been hesitant to pick this up because of all of the low ratings. I'm so glad that I didn't let the negative reviews stear me away from this because I would have missed a real gem. My advice is to read the books that you want regardless of what everyone else says because who knows you may just end up loving them.
