Amarra Snow-Eyes

I loved the little touches that give the world more depth, such as the customs of the people which are revealed to us through Amarra's life. The family relationships and conflicts are captivating, as is the detailed dream imagery. If you enjoy this book, there is another book set in the same world in which Amarra makes an appearance - "The Boy Who Was Thrown Away"

kids book great for adults too

This was my favorite book in sixth grade. I checked it out from the library a dozen times. recently I saw it in a used book store and couldn't imagine not owning it. It is a beatuifuly sad coming-of-age story about a gil who is forced to follow into her mother's goddess footsteps. As an adult I see my stuggle though the teenage years in snow eyes. Something, I didn't realize when I read it as a kid.
