#DynamicDs I loved this #dark eco suspense story!
@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Dominic and his three children have lived on a small isolated island near Antarctica. They are finishing up some work and await the boat that will come for them in 6 weeks. But then a mysterious woman is found near their shore. As she is rescued and begins to heal, she discovers that the family may be keeping some secrets. Atmospheric and haunting, this story takes some unexpected turns and keeps the reader on edge. Engrossing reading.
Moody sock and a broody read. Very good, suspenseful, characters you want to root for.
Wild Dark Shore is likely to provoke some climate anxiety in sensitive souls. Even if the climate anxiety doesn‘t get you, the traumas the characters are reckoning with will. This book has A+ nature writing, and a fascinating premise, but it‘s a huge bummer, overall. Full review: https://keepingupwiththepenguins.com/wild-dark-shore-charlotte-mcconaghy/
This is such an amazing book! I've recommended it so many times at my library, and everyone has enjoyed it.
It's dark, it's emotional, it's mysterious, and it's a novel that only Charlotte McConaghy could write.
I have loved all her other books, and this one did not disappoint.

I finished 3 great books this week but the tagged gets all the stars. I usually am hopeful that the summer #CampLitsy books are new to me but I think I‘d love this one to win a slot so I can reread it and discuss.

This book is amazing, truly! A family lives alone on a remote island off the coast of Antarctica, protecting a seed bank until the next supply ship arrives. When a woman washes ashore, all their lives are changed forever. It‘s a story of hope, of secrets, of lies and of course of love. Narrated one chapter at a time by each character, we slowly learn their stories. My favorite book of this year so far. Highly recommend!
Still thinking about this one a week later.
