Alice’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Last of the Moon Girls

The Last of the Moon Girls by Barbara Davis

1 note & 1 highlight

There are no goodbyes, my Lizzy, only turnings of the Circle.

In college, my one professor talked a lot about the great Circle, the seasons of the earth, the seasons of our lives. The Circle is a prominent part of earth driven faith, and this might be my favorite line in the whole book. Serious Gaia vibes from Althea.
