What a beautiiful read. These stories are like poetry. The nature section was obvi my favorite!

Very well written and interesting! The three-person perspective was a change from the last book and I definitely struggled with that and all the character names (though I could have kept refering to the front guide on characters). Maybe not a book I should have read at the bedside.

FINALLY! A Patricia Cornwell novel with a worthy ending!!!! I love all the hints to Richmond in her novels that keep me reading but some of her other novels had endings that were in the last 2 pages. This one had a thoughtout and well-described outcome.

A comical mysterythat was a bit predictable, but the comedy made it worthwhile to keep reading!

Ziwe gets it. Hilarious and upfront, this book is a great combo of a reality check that keeps you reading.

I had to leave this behind this week (too heavy to bring with me) but I am nearing the halfway mark. I am truly hoping that the hospital becomes a reality, but that seems further each time Ali is involved...

What a great way to tell this story. Yes, these were incredible women, but they repeatedly focused their efforts (throughout rafting an "unraftable" river) on their botanical identifications. I still don't know how they lasted when they were carrying the men, being told they would never make it, and having scathing news reports writing lies.

Was hoping to learn more from this, but it seems like this book would be better for a city or suburban dweller...

A book that really draws you in! I am still new to fantasy so I think certain aspects were not for me...but I am intrigued and loved the writing in this one. Ready to try book 2!

What a great concept and well executed! An interesting approach to this sci-fi trope that I can get behind.

What an AMAZING way to get the severity of climate change and capitalism for our future. Having a nonbinary perspective in this book realm has been needed!!!!

Someone needs to explain to me the hype. At first, the book shared the history of Spinolaga from a personal perspective. Once it moves off of the island though, it lost me. Just another love story until they bring it back to the island.

WOW! I am always down for a Preston and Child and this one was well done. They are a great team and pulled together an interesting mystery with real and fictitious characters. And based around autopsy and a mining town in CO! My favorite kind of easy read.

I rrally tried to branch out into vampire/werewolf world with this Buffy book but it did not hit for me!

What a delightful read! Reminding us to stay connected to nature, our food systems, and each other❤️

The twist!!!! I highly recommend even with a slower start.

Such an enlightening book! I never knew about her dancing career or how she was an aninal lover!

I'm so excited to read about this legend!

Such an amazing book! I love to get different perspectives on the ivory-towers of academia.

My dream job! She has to deal with so much life stuff and the wolves truly give her purpose.

What a great time to read a fiction novel...

Such a great book! I thought it was simply about the history of the AT, but it explored how trails began and how different cultures have historically used trails. I LOVED learning about the ways of forming indigenous trails.

What a refreshing scifi drama! I love that this book has options to delve deeper into the science (: the social media aspect put this book into a close-to-reality scope!

I am so glad that this book was recommended to me! This turtle rescue works alongside the one I visited in undergrad but is close to my current town! While the story telling is a bit all over, the stories are quite unique and hopeful.

Overall a decent read. The mystery is sidelinned often with drama, but the redeeming factor is the engagement with the deaf community. I seriously would have stopped reading without that piece.

Unsurprisingly, he is a great writer. I was oblivious to his personal life and reading this puts many things into perspective. I cannot imagine a struggle like this that was truly life long.

This book is like Michael Crichton's Timeline meets a female Indiana Jones!!!! 10/10 recommend!

Great read! I really enjoyed the multicharacter perspective as well as the perspectives from different aspects (politics, dating, etc.).
