Reading this book feels like complaining about something and feeling a little stupid while you do, but the listener has the warmest, most caring expression on their face the entire time. This book knows exactly what it wants to be and executes it masterfully. Any flaw I can stretch for is so small that it drowns in the excellence of the rest of it. This isn’t a book for any time or any mood, but A Psalm for the Wild-Built is as perfect a book can be for the times when you are lost and don’t know what you’re doing anymore. I recommend this book without reservation to anyone who could use a break and a nice cup of tea.
