That awesome moment when you get book mail you didn‘t realize was on its way!!
The covers on these are completely gorgeous!!
Now I have the full set of three!!
Now to finish off 2023 or start 2024 with them?!?
Has anyone read all three?
Are they all separate stories or do they connect?

Although I had a few minor issues with how some elements played out in the end, overall I found this to be an oddly wonderful heartfelt story of redemption, loss, and moving on. A story with unique characters and an unparalleled storyline. Susannah Johnson gave a wonderful performance…I just wish that they had two separate narrators for the two separate POVs. It would have given this remarkable story the narration it deserved.

#Leaves made me think of this beautiful book. I loved this & the author‘s first book & I enjoy following her on Instagram for her gorgeous nature photos. I “borrowed” one for the background here.🍁🍂🍁💜
pickI loved the first book I read by this author (Where the Forest Meets the Stars)and this one was even better.
It follows two lives; Ellis, who leaves her baby alone for a few minutes to find she has been taken, and Raven, who is being brought up in unusual circumstances by her mother. Of course, we immediately know the relationship between the two but the author weaves a fantastic story around them and you‘re never sure where it‘s going to go.

Leaving her infant daughter unattended for a few minutes has Ellis battling herself—her guilt, grief, pain the addictions she is using to numb it all. I read/reviewed this back in March & it‘s still one of my favorites for the year, much like the author‘s first book in 2019.
pickI hesitated for a couple of months to start this because I thought it was going to be too tragic. And it was, but in a good way! I loved the different points of view. I‘d have liked to have learned more and River and Jasper‘s childhood, as well as more from Jonah through the years but I‘m happy with what we‘re told and how it all ends!

pickBy the author of Where the Forest Meets the Stars:
One unbearable mistake at the edge of the forest.
In a moment of crisis, Ellis Abbey leaves her daughter, Viola, unattended—for just a few minutes. But when she returns, Viola is gone....

pickThis novel was a rollercoaster of emotions. I was drawn in right from the start & the dual timeline was done very well. It was sort of fairytale like because it had witches, villains, tragedies... but a happy ending.
I'm starting to think that the post office is just letting my packages accumulate...

pickThe author‘s first book was one of my favorites of 2019 & I liked this one even more. Tough subjects are covered as a young mother loses her baby at the edge of a forrest & her grief & addictions have her leaving her sons & heading to the wilderness for healing & an attempt not to damage their lives further. But the book is about growth, redemption & love & gorgeously written, Glendy‘s passion for nature shining through. Here with book-inspired⬇️
