A review by pamjsa
Idaho by Emily Ruskovich

4.0

Lovely, evocative writing--as a native Idahoan myself, I appreciate the rare novel that understands and values the relationship between people and the landscapes that shape them. I admire so much about this book, though I did find the narrative needlessly meandering and, at times, self-indulgent in its focus on language. Nevertheless, the ending felt satisfying and true. It's hard to ask for more than that.
