The Killing Woods | Lucy Christopher

It‘s light green—almost yellow—perfectly miniature and beautiful. The smallest piece of art there is—frozen, yet warming in my hands. And I take it for Dad, a small crack of light in this dark.

Hilarious and heartbreaking. Erin Bow keeps the suspense going — a late reveal of the traumatic thing that‘s happened to 12-year-old Simon, which necessitated a move to a town without internet — and she keeps the laughs rolling too: a church blessing of the animals gone awry, a murderous peacock, a death metal squirrel cult, etc. This middle grade novel has garnered numerous awards & accolades; now I‘m adding mine. It‘s fantastic. #CanadianAuthor

Today it‘s definitely feeling like spring. I can smell the ‘gentler, more organic pace of life‘ being spread on the surrounding fields.

Oh man, I read this book tonight in one sitting and I have a feeling I'll be thinking about it for quite a while! This book is truly a masterpiece! Such a beautiful, and heartfelt story, but also funny as hell! 💕📚

Wow. The care that went into writing about something so harrowing is felt throughout the book. Frankie‘s entire journey was so thoughtfully and well written that I could see and feel and smell everything on the page. War is ugly and it ruins people and to read something so raw, it pulls at your soul and makes you feel everything. Book #11 in 2024 (their faces are intentional)

I can‘t even imagine going through what these families experienced.I was a military wife whose husband was deployed to the Middle East.Many of the occurrences described in this book could have happened.Thankfully they did not.I liked how the husband and wife‘s lives came together in order to get Jolene the help that she needed.This story is inspirational.It talks of deployment from a different angle.Reading it helped me to bette understand PTSD

I don't know how such an emotional and sad story could be so full of hope and end on a positive note. There were a lot of heartbreaking moments throughout the story, and I really felt for the characters as they struggled through things. Yet, it was still a cute romance, and a great retelling of The Nutcracker.

Re reading this one. It‘s a bit dated and his ideas are not new to many cultures (which he acknowledges). I appreciate his activist stance against the negligence and abuse of power that has caused a lot of harm for people with trauma histories.
