Gossip from the Forest by Sara Maitland
4.0
I don't know why it took me so long to finish this one. It's beautifully written, informative yet succinct, and even lyrical at times. I found it absorbing, engaging, even read aloud excitedly (to whoever poor sod was nearby at the time) at more than a few points. And then I hit the last few chapters and stalled completely, and it seemed to drag from there. Nothing had changed, maybe it was a case of "it's not you, it's me" - or maybe you truly can have too much of a good thing?
Regardless, it's a fantastic book. I'd actually love to hear it aloud sometime (instead of inflicting my own readings on other people, that is).
