What a glowing and spectacularly articulated review. This book was not on my radar, but I am going to pick it up immediately. Just lovely!

I just finished this an hour ago and saved your video specifically for this time. It was completely gripping, I was utterly thrilled reading this story. My potential favorite of the year so far. I own Long Bright River and need to read it, but will certainly purchase her backlist now as well! ❤Great book chat and I’m happy this was a win for you 😊

My favourite book of the year so far too. I couldn’t put it down. Loved the reveals and twists. So excited I have all her others to catch up on.

Long Bright River was flawless. Grips you and doesn't let you go. Can't wait to read this!

I'm currently reading and loving this book, and it's all because of you! I also loved The Unseen World by the same author.

Ooh, that sounds so good! I have read her last four books and can’t wait to read this one!

I had to wait until tonight to watch your review as I only finished the audio two hours ago. I loved it. I’m trying to collect and read all her books.

Just started this book yesterday and am hooked, glad to hear it stays good/doesn't disappoint at the end!

It's on my tbr and I can't wait to read it! I loved two of her previous books and this is the first of hers to be translated into Dutch. I'm very excited about it and even more so after your glowing review :)

Best wishes with what you choose to read. I hope you get some great stories. Happy reading to you and to your channel.

I’m already excited to receive my copy of this and now I know I’ll be obsessed.

I just finished this book and feel the same way you do! Thoroughly enjoyable! It's why we love to read. ❤🎉

I just got a copy this week. Looking forward to digging in!

Just picked it up in audio! Can’t wait to dive in. ❤

I’m reading it right now and I’m immersed. It’s so good!!

You don't give reviews like this often so, when you do, I know it's the real deal. Straight to the top of my TBR this goes 🎉

caught up with loads of your videos this morning and the way my library holds list has just exploded, what a gem you are! can't wait to get round to this ♥

I've started it now and I'm so curious about it, but haven't gotten a lot of time yet to read! I'm hoping I'll get into it further soon!

The audiobook is very well done.

Reading it right now thanks to your review.I am totally drawn in love each character their story you really brought this book alive.

This was such a great review of a brilliant book. I just finished it yesterday and could re-read it immediately. I do love Liz Moore’s writing and I feel that this book in particular is perfect. 📚x

I’m reading it now. On page 146.

Gave this 5 stars. So gripping

I’m so excited I found ur channel! I came to KZfaq bc I couldn’t decide what book to listen to next & ….. now I know!! 😁 I read/listen to 1-2 books a week so I’ll be back for more suggestions 🩷

Fantastic video Mercedes Amazing review 😌 I have ordered a copy now Can’t wait to receive it xx

I’m already ready for an audio reread!

I just finished this book and echo a lot of your sentiments! Such a beautifully written and layered story. I only diverge in the area re: social commentary-I found it interesting that a lot of discussion on land and ownership almost completely omitted mention of any indigenous communities (there was one acknowledging sentence if i recall correctly). I just found that omission more of an interesting meta-narrative than anything!

Brilliant review. You summarized it so well. I loved the layout of the timelines and wish more books did that. I can't stop thinking about the characters either. I need to pick something else up but I can't seem to move on from this story!

Just finished it. It was amazing!

I read this based on your recommendation in your previous video on 10 literary thrillers - just finished and it was excellent. Thank you so much and happy reading! P.S. Oops forgot to say really nice discussion.

I really enjoyed this book!

I've just finished this, but I have questions about one thing that happened and why. It's so frustrating! Otherwise I loved it!

I'm sold!

I just finished The God of the Woods this morning! It was a wild ride for sure. It is a chunker of a book, but I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I got through it in two days! I absolutely love this author and think she gets better with every book she writes, which is a very high bar to set. Have you read her earlier book "Heft"? It is the story of Arthur Ott who weighs 550 pounds and hasn't left his home in a decade. I read that book years ago and still think of it.

This reminded me so much of A Crooked Tree by Una Mannion which was also such a banger

🎉

I previously read Kala after watching your video - and really loved it! And I'm currently reading Ohio, also after your video. I'm only about 30 pages in so far but I'm enjoying it. So if this book got its own stand-alone review, it'll have to go on my tbr)

I’ve just started reading the book and the only reason was this review

Why can’t so many bloggers say th, as a reader it’s not fought it’s thought 🤦‍♂️
