I love this book! It’s the book that got me back into reading when I was 10 years old and I’ve loved it ever since. Love the story, and characters to the very bottom of my soul. It does deal in some serious themes as these are rabbit living out in the world. This isn’t all pure heartedness aimed at kids. But I personally feel that added seriousness helps add a richness to the story and makes you really start to connect and root for them. I highly recommend.

When I was young my Mom told that Watership Down was too sad for me. I have always been sensitive. However, it isn’t actually that sad. It is very tense though.

Just a perfectly sweet story. Makes you feel like a kid being told a bedtime story by a grandparent. 

I listened to Peter Capaldi narate it, he was fantastic.

This made me feel like a little kid again which I know isn’t an easy feat. I was squirming reading this feeling so tense and anxious for battle rabbits in a society some parts even felt apocalyptic. An absolute page-turner this was awesome
