I didn‘t connect with the style of writing and not with the characters. I truly didn‘t. Unfortunate but not all can be 5-star reads. 🤷🏻♀️
While I‘m ripping through The Bee Sting at a pretty good clip, I own that one and the library is only giving me 7 days to read this one, Moon Road. 🇨🇦
This was recommended to me as a book for fans of Strout and Kingsolver and so of course I was right in. This story is told in a measured, dispassionate, observational tone which reminded me a lot of Strout‘s writing in a good way. It‘s about loss and hope, connection and disconnection in a marriage, and it‘s one of those stories that just really gets people for all their flaws. Everything about it felt three dimensional and real.
Best book I‘ve read this year - runner up is Claire Keegan‘s So Late in the Day. The main characters are reunited after 3 decades when they get word that their missing daughter‘s bones may have been found on a train on the west coast of Canada. Brilliant prose, every word matters. A gem 5 ⭐️
I cannot say enough about Moon Road by Sarah Leipcigar. I was hooked by the end of page one. The main characters are so well developed, the prose is crisp and sharp, and the story sucks you in.
I couldn‘t wait for this to drop in 🇨🇦 so I ordered it from the UK. I can‘t wait to dive in.
I ordered my copy. The reviews look great and she could write about wallpaper and I‘d be captivated.
