We Went to the Woods | 
pickFive privileged white kids go to the property of one of their parents and playact at homesteading (this is acknowledged in the book), but then some side projects start to shake thinks up. While I enjoyed this while I was listening to it, I kind of now wonder what the point was. A low pick.
Somewhere in the multiverse, Thoreau wrote The Secret History; Or Millennials On A Commune.
panLet me start by saying that I was so excited to receive an ARC of this book as I absolutely loved Dead Letters, Dolan-Leach‘s debut. When I started this book, I had the highest of hopes but as this story dragged on, I wanted this just to end.

#AyUpAugust A group of privileged millennials head #DownInTheWoods to live life off the grid with the hopes of creating their own utopian society. Oh, those privileged millennials, they never learn 😜Enjoyable read from the author who brought us Dead Letters.
pickI loved DEAD LETTERS, so I was excited to read this. It was fascinating and frustrating at the same time, and I was surprised in the end to be so moved. I'm already looking forward to more from Caite Dolan-Leach in the future! 4/ 5⭐ #libraryloot
pickAnother solid read from Caite Dolan-Leach, author of Dead Letters. It was pretty clear where this one was going from the start, but I really enjoy her writing, so happily went into the woods with her 🏕
The #libraryloot keeps coming! I loved Caite Dolan-Leach's DEAD LETTERS when I read it in 2017, so as soon as I heard about this new book, I put a hold on it at my library!
Happy Publication Day to Caite Dolan-Leach!! If you liked Dead Letters, you‘ll enjoy We Went To The Woods. Great writing, intriguing plot and a guest appearance from Zelda!!! Pick up a copy!! #RandomHousePublishing
pickWhile I loved Dolan-Leach‘s first novel, I found her second to be a gripping read as well, thanks to #NetGalley. Escaping reality to #ImaginaryPlaces of their own ideals, a group of millennials move off grid to a historic site in upstate NY where other communes have tried and failed- usually due to the #HotAndHeavy antics between members... but trigger warning to dog lovers here... #WanderingJune #JazzyJune #DogsOfLitsy
pickAs a reader I know three universal truths: 1.Stay out of the woods 2. History repeats itself 3. It‘s always about sex and this book proves my theory correct 😊I‘m definitely a Caite Dolan-Leach fan. Her writing is clever & intuitive. She has a knack for creating real characters ( mostly people you‘d never want to befriend). 5 privileged millennials disenchanted with suburbia enter the woods to start their own utopia. We know this won‘t end well.
Caite Dolan-Leach gives us a wink & nod to her previous book Dead Letters. Handsome Beau is introducing his old friend “Zelda” to his new cohabiters. She‘s introduced as “something of a loose cannon” who‘s twin sister took off to Europe and she now runs a family owned vineyard. I like when an author throws in a hidden reference. Kudos 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
“Trying to live the good life can be f%cking complicated” Five friends decide to live off the grid and form their own little commune in the woods of upstate NY. We know from past experiences, nothing good happens when you enter the woods😜 I‘m intrigued so far #NetGalley #ARC
pick4⭐️
Mack can't help herself: when she gets a chance to show off, she takes it. Working for a caterer while living with her parents after a foray into reality tv, she attracts Louisa. Louisa probably knows what Mack has done. She certainly knows how to use her.
My thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Full review at the link below:

pickGreat second book from the author. I didnt think it was better than "Dead Letters" but it was worth the read. Also, it closely followed "The Girls" by Emma Cline. Dragged a little slowly in the middle but picked up at the end.
