5.0

I thought this was a quietly brilliant little novel. It managed to make me care deeply about the people in the story and was filled with complex and nuanced central characters. Although set against a backdrop of so many of the horrors of the last few years, the care and love seen in many of the relationships between the characters still warmed my heart. Extra points for a birding subplot!
