Soulful and raw, wise and whimsical, Something in the Woods Loves You is a memoir of severe depression, therapy and recovery, and the transformative power of our relationship with nature—a living invitation of kinship with and inspiration from the world around us. A new all-time favorite, full of passages I underlined to return to in times of need—highly recommended for fans of Mary Oliver!

Yes, yes it does. And I love this book. A favorite read this year, and of all time. Mental illness and potentially triggering but my oh my did I love these words. So many passages to highlight throughout.

Nature is healing. 🤍
Highly recommended.

squirrelbrain Sounds wonderful - stacking! And I love your flowers - are they echinaceas/ coneflowers? 5d

JamieArc I‘m so glad you read this and posted it. I loved it as well. I almost never reread books, but this one is worth returning to. @squirrelbrain I hope you do read this book. If I remember, one of the chapters revolves around squirrels 😊 5d

AnnCrystal “Nature is Healing“ 👏🏼🤩🌸💝. 5d

Chelsea.Poole @squirrelbrain yes! Coneflowers—they are absolutely taking over my back garden. Which is a good thing, mostly. 😊 And yes! There‘s a chapter on squirrels, one of the many sections set 30 minutes from home, at the university where my husband works which made me love it that much more. I could go on and on about this book! @JamieArc same here, I never reread but this is one I‘d like to own to revisit often. It‘s life affirming. 4d

TheKidUpstairs I've got this one on hold at the library, I think it's almost my turn! Pretty sure it was @JamieArc 's suggestion that made me put it on hold, glad to hear your love it too! 4d

JamieArc @TheKidUpstairs I‘m pretty sure I mentioned it in our email chain because I thought @monalyisha would really appreciate it. I‘ll look forward to seeing what you think too, Megan 😊 4d

1. Yes, I put them in the mail this morning. Only because I couldn‘t stand writing a check to the federal government. I literally shed a few tears thinking about where my money was going and where it wasn‘t.
