Calling up bravery is thematic in Smothermoss. There a murderer on the loose, half sisters at polar opposites, and the 1980s. All in the Appalachia, a wild place with the old magic of the mountain. In the book, bravery is in Angie (untamable; lives Red Dawn) and Shelia (coming to terms with her sexuality). Well written, character driven (even nature is a character), magic manifestations. In Smothermoss, bravery is self reflection and action.

This one ended up being too weird for me. There were so many elements that I just didn‘t get. There were definite happenings of a fantastical nature, but they weren‘t explored enough to be satisfying to me. By the end, I was pretty checked out.
