Thank you NetGalley and Macmillan Young Listeners for this Audio ARC!
This was such an enjoyable read. I am obsessed with Appalachian folk stories, and this was such an interesting setting and following multiple characters from a small and very socially divided town, while they make impossible decisions and sacrifices for the ones they love. A lot of times with this many characters it is hard to really give each and every one their own individual voice that there is no doubt about who's chapter you are reading at any given time, but this author did such a good job with their individual voices and stories as they went through their own stories that also intersected throughout the book.
I cannot wait to read more from this author.
