review:
'Terra Nullius' by Claire G. Coleman was the October book club book pick for my book club.

Taking place in Australia, the book is about a young man named Jacky who has escaped a residential school in Australia and is being hunted down to be brought back. This feels like a standard story of indigenous people and the colonizers who only see them as lesser or animals. It is that and a bit more as the scope of the book changes about the 1/3 mark.

I liked the story by the end, but it was hard for me to get in to the story and it felt overly long to make its points. I liked the story and characters though.
