Such an amazing book, so atmospheric. A beautiful story about a family that lives off the grid. About climate change, and all the drama that nature performs.

I loved this book on grief, friendship, and memory. It was striking how this coming of age story could capture so many emotions in such a realistic and nostalgic way. It helped me to process my own stories of grief and how to support those in grief. Also, all of the relationships were so well described. It was a fast read.

This book was fast, I read it in 4 days. The structure of the book was really thoughtful. It is written in so many different ways, when he interviews his mentor, it becomes very surreal, in and out of memories and hard to decipher was is real and not. Which is kind of the book as a whole. There are so many layers, about memory, communication, and technology. Def a book club book. After I finished it, I immediately looked for people to talk to about it, its needs to be discussed and processed!

Wow. This book. Another book club book. I read this very quickly. I love her writing style. This book is about friendship, racism, and family. It takes place in the civil rights era, and two friends coming of age. Both of their journeys and their attempts of belonging, and finding themselves, exploring identity and secrets. I couldn’t wait to go back and read American marriage her book she wrote before this one…
