I liked this book a lot. It's about serious topics (the death of a parent, stolen land) but has a fast-paced and lighthearted tone. I loved the main character's relationship with her mom and her best friend. In some places Hazel seemed kind of immature for her age (her first meltdown about the mine felt kind of YA to me) and a few things in the ending wrapped up maybe a little too neatly, but overall I would recommend this.
