A dystopian novel about humanity reaching its cataclysmic end thanks to climate change, this is a touching, heartbreaking story. Rowan shipwrecks in Antarctica where a family is trying to stay afloat and save as many seeds from the forever (it‘s not)seed bank. They save her life, but the family needs saving, too, from the rising sea and from their own secrets. I read the book while also listening to the audiobook, which I highly recommend. The ⬇️

Texreader multiple narrators are brilliant conveying all the feels for this book. But I was able to switch back and forth easily. Very highly recommended. #camplitsy @Megabooks @squirrelbrain @barbarabb 22h

I finished both of these books last night. Vacation has been a very productive reading time! I‘m now trying to catch up on long overdue book reviews.

Whew, this one really packed a punch. It‘s a billion degrees here and sweaty, but I felt as if cold ocean water was creeping in all around me. The island and the whales were my favorite characters.
#CampLitsy @BarbaraBB @Megabooks @squirrelbrain how will I ever decide between this and Audition? How how will the rest of the summer live up to this great month of reading? Can‘t wait to discuss the rest on Saturday.

squirrelbrain Glad you‘re loving camp! Your garden is gorgeous! 💚🪴💚 4d

Butterfinger Keeping you cool in the heat. Love it. 3d

BarbaraBB What a great start of camp we‘ve been having right? Those discussions are the best. I have high hopes for July and August too even though at this moment I am not sure any of the remaining books can top Wild Dark Shore for me! But I still need to read them so I am hoping for some surprises! (edited) 3d

Bookwormjillk @BarbaraBB such good discussions and the books so far are so different. It's been a great month at camp. 3d

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Soo atmospheric and I loved reading the chapters from Orly about the seeds (maybe the biologist in me coming out). There was one instance where the science was wrong which always bothers me but I still love this cli-fi novel about a woman who washes up on the shore and the family living in a lighthouse on a deserted island who find her.

Interested in hearing @Ruthiella ‘s view on this one for our #camplitsy discussion!

Ruthiella 😂I have a lot to live up to now! 4d

Kitta @Ruthiella I saw you reviewed it on goodreads and didn‘t read your review because I didn‘t want to be swayed haha. 4d

Kitta Also throwback to #camplitsy24 but the atmosphere is this reminded me a little of

LeeRHarry Ooh now I‘m intrigued to know where the science is wrong…😏 4d

Kitta @LeeRHarry I can‘t remember exactly what it was that wasn‘t right, but I remember thinking that it wasn‘t entirely correct. Maybe an oversimplification rather than outright wrong. (edited) 4d

Butterfinger I think I jumped to the assumption that you were referring to the disappearance of the island. After reading the comment to @LeeRHarry I don't think that is it. 3d

Kitta @Butterfinger oh no, it was something about one of the plants or sea creatures? I think about the seals? Idk. Not the climate science. 3d
