I don‘t even know how to describe how I feel about this book. It tore me up. It made me laugh. Moon Water was light and dark & everything in between: adventurous, spiritual, heartbreaking. Pam Webber is a fantastic writer using Hurricane Camille as one of the antagonists with the ability to reach out of the book, into your heart and tear it out of you if you let her. #netgalley #pamwebber #MoonWater

“They‘d seen the inky form before, always after dark and always from this vantage on the hill. At first, they‘d been afraid; however, it hadn‘t taken long for fear to give way to curiosity. Over the years, they‘d hidden at different spots along the path in hopes of discovering the nighttime visitor‘s identity, but whenever they got close enough to recognize a face, no one showed.” Thanks to Netgalley in lieu of my honest review. Coming soon. 😀
