review 1: This book is so beautifully written. Nearly every sentence, every phrase, comes out of the page. There is not a dull moment throughout the entire novel. Siki's observations and ways of thinking are fascinating. They make what she is going through somehow more relatable. There are so many twists in the plot, which is at times heart wrenching. I also adored the many morals entwined into the story. There were feminist undertones in Siki's pursuit as a warrior and emphasis on the importance that the Apache placed on nature. It really highlights the tragedy of the invasion from the North and the destruction of Native American culture, which is something I knew little about before reading 'I Am Apache.' Informative, interesting, alive and so eloquent; I am so glad that I read 'I... more Am Apache' and thoroughly recommend it.
review 2: This was a really good book. I have been into the native american culture and history for as long as I can remember, so naturally it is now one of my favorite books. To keep in mind, this is still a work of fiction even though it's history is somewhat accurate. I love this book and would recommend it to people interested in the native american culture, and can handle the cruelty of the new americans actions. less
