Five star review, originally posted here on December 21, 2020 during a mass-review of pandemic audiobooks.
[DISCLAIMER: I’m catching up on months worth of Audiobook reviews, so writing this quickly and belatedly.]
I only discovered Amy Greene earlier this year, and she’s already a favorite author. The story, characters, and landscape all came to life. The audiobook was an ensemble cast, which I think worked really well since each section switched to a different narrator. I admire Green’s ability to suck me into her characters’ world. It’s been a while since I listened to this one, so I can’t quite remember why this one didn’t speak to me quite as much as Long Man (to which I gave 4 stars). Still, great novel, great author, can’t wait her next book.
