gandalf's review against another edition
3.0
I liked reading about moss but I grew less appreciative of her philosphical musings over time--partially a casualty of having read this over the period of a year and pondering it more, but also, certain claims of hers are far less enlightened than she thinks

I found it incredibly scientific and informative. There were vignettes of her personal life as well as personal narratives, but it was hard to stay focused.
I got a lot of recommendations to read her other book, Braiding Sweetgrass shortly after I finished Gathering Moss. It's on my to read list for sure!
Also just to clarify, I'm not telling folks to NOT read this book, it was just a bit too scientific for me.

If Kimmerer had been my bio professor in college, I might have actually enjoyed that semester
