Scott, this was such a great read - I bought it based on your rec and it didn‘t disappoint! Celine is absolutely my kind of character - I just adore her. I wish he‘d write another book about her search for her daughter ♥️ Peter Heller fans, which of his other books should I read? @vivastory

CBee His writing is gorgeous, especially in regards to nature and the outdoors. I could see the trees, the mountains, feel the clean air - *sigh* 4mo

inthegreensandblues I really enjoyed The River and The Guide, which share a MC. This one sounds great. Definitely more Peter Heller in my future. 4mo

CBee @inthegreensandblues the main character is quirky and damaged and just a delight despite it all. 4mo

vivastory This post really means a lot to me! I loved this book & I'm so happy that this one worked for you as well 💙I have heard RAVE reviews for his book The Dog Stars! I'm loosely following the 52 book club challenge for the year & the only book I haven't selected is a buddy read. Would you be open for a buddy read of another Heller in Sep/October? 4mo

CBee @vivastory it was right up my alley! I don‘t know if I can read The Dog Stars - being such a big animal person, well, something happens and I don‘t usually handle that well (I hope I‘m making sense 😂). That being said, what about reading The River?

CBee These also look good:

vivastory I'm open for any of them! Both The river & The Painter sound especially good. Your choice 🙂 4mo

CBee @vivastory let‘s go with The River! Let me know when you want to get started 😊 4mo

vivastory The River sounds great! How does the first week of September sound? 4mo

CBee @vivastory perfect! My library has it so I‘ll get it closer to the end of August! 4mo

The ending was satisfying in a way that left me wanting more. I wasn‘t ready for it to be over. There is a conclusion to what happened to the missing person. I was also left with curiosity about what happened to the characters next. This ending left room for the reader to draw their own conclusions, which I kind of like. It‘s fun to dream about what I hope happens next.

Celine: A novel | Peter Heller

pick

I had some trouble rating this book because the book itself can't quite seem to decide what it wants to be. It‘s also not exactly a novel, but somewhere in between. A novel with some thriller aspects. A slow-paced suspense with a lot of backstory. A spy story not about the spy at all. A missing person case with a long explanation as to why the detective takes on missing person cases. Something like that. The point is, I really enjoyed it. But⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) I'm also not sure exactly why 😂

Great #LMPBC pick @bookandbedandtea !! @Jerdencon @robinb

Susanita My book club liked it more than I did, but I want to try the Dusty Miller sundae. 9mo

bookandbedandtea I like your analysis, Sarah. I can't properly describe the book, and couldn't nail down a genre for it, but I really enjoyed it. 🤷‍♀️ 9mo

robinb I enjoyed it as well, but it was definitely different. And I get what you say about the genre thing. At times it felt like a cozy, at times a book more about the mysterious Celine than a thriller/mystery. Celine was the focus, all else took a backseat. 😂 9mo

This was definitely a case of the right book at the right time. With so much holiday craziness I only had time to read in little sips, which turned out to be the perfect way to read this story.
In 1898 Alex joins a field study in Yellowstone National Park and shocks the other scientists by being a woman 😱 The story touches on conservation, Native American displacement, feminism, and the nature of science.
