Nothing Grows by Moonlight | Torborg Nedreaas
post image
Mehso-so

I felt like I was in a fever dream while reading this. I could feel the restlessness of the FMC while she was just trying to live a life.

Through her words, Nedreaas smacks you right in the middle of this story and never lets you go.

There are a lot of "gasp out loud" moments in this story, but the most shocking to me was the very descriptive self-termination of pregnancy (trigger warning).

3.5⭐️

A mother, her two daughters, and an ex-husband of one of the daughters are struggling: one coping with an end of life issue and the others dealing with an infidelity and a reckoning. I appreciated the writing and, honestly, I related strongly with all the characters. There should have been a ‘bad guy‘ but I found myself able to empathize with all of them. Not sure who decided this cover though. Thanks to @Jeg and @Centique for the recommendation.

sarahbarnes This sounds like I would like it. Stacking. 2mo

I did have success on one #14Books14Weeks boards. #LibraryEdition for the win! And on the bright said my list of library holds is down 14 books. It‘s still 40+ so we are still struggling.

Thank you @Liz_M for hosting this challenge I needed it.

Liz_M Your multiple boards were inspiring! I'm happy to see that you had some success. 2mo

Unfortunately, my #OwnedEdition of #14Books14Weeks did not see completion either. But I tried and did get a few books (5/14) off my TBR so still a win, right?

Thanks for reviewing this book @Jeg encouraging me to read it. I havent read a book about estranged family members for a long time, and this was just written so well. Hillary is the widowed mother of two daughters who are no longer speaking to each other. We have her POV, Esther and April, the two middle aged daughters, and Lawrence, Esther‘s ex-husband. Each of them are at a crossroads. ⬇️

Centique The writing is beautiful, contemplative, examining relationships and choices. Loved it! 3mo

This book will stay with me for a while. Knowing the authors background and that she died the year this was published made this a thoughtful read for me. A story about relationships, living and dying and more. I loved it. I‘ve read a couple of her books now and loved them all. A talent lost too soon.

CarolynM I loved this one ❤️ It‘s too sad she died so young. 4mo
Centique What a wonderful review, i will have to move this up the TBR. 😍 4mo
