"Behind the veil of trees, night's voices shimmered."

#FirstLineFridays @ShyBookOwl

Starting this one from the #WomensPrizeNonFiction long list.

squirrelbrain I‘m listening to this (it‘s loooong - about 17 hours I think). I‘m about 1/4 of the way through and really liking it - it‘s very poetic. I think her life may just be starting to get tough. The author reads it herself and I love her voice. 9mo
vivastory I am really interested in this one. What I have heard about it has intrigued me. 9mo
TheKidUpstairs @squirrelbrain I was hoping to listen, but couldn't find the audio to borrow, it seems like the rhythms would work really well on audio. I'm surprised it's that long! The book is only just over 300 pages. 9mo

TheKidUpstairs @vivastory I've only just started, but she writes beautifully. So far so good! 9mo
squirrelbrain I thought that was weird too, as the book doesn‘t look huge compared to some others on the list. I‘m wondering if there is some bonus material… I‘ll let you know when I get to the end. 9mo
Graywacke @TheKidUpstairs @squirrelbrain I just started listening yesterday 9mo
squirrelbrain @Graywacke - I‘m about 3/4 of the way through on audio - love the author reading it herself. 9mo
Graywacke @squirrelbrain quite stunning and beautiful. I‘m only an hour in. 9mo
