Gathering Moss: A Natural and Cultural History of Mosses by Robin Wall Kimmerer

5.0

Braiding Sweetgrass was one of my absolute favourite reads of the year and it was lovely to round out 2024 with more from Robin Wall Kimmerer.

Unsurprisingly, Gathering Moss takes a deep dive into the world of moss, but as with Braiding Sweetgrass, science is seamlessly woven with indigenous teachings and tales from RWK’s personal life.

I perhaps didn’t enjoy it quite as much as Braiding Sweetgrass but it was still a fantastic read, and I’m excited to dive into The Serviceberry soon.
