Rating: 3 / 5

I really don’t know why this novel is bestselling.
The content is very irritating and ridiculous. Even though I should agree that this novel is a good mixture of a detective novel and a introduction of Navajo culture, why the author used so much negative stuff to introduce Navajo culture? He could have written a happy novel about Navajo. Also everything is kept in suspense till the very end of the story and it turns out that there’s no unexpected twist or deep story.
Don’t waste time, there are so many other novels that worth paying money for. Don’t misinterpret that the best selling novel is the best novel.
