  "The Overstory" by [email protected] (see profile) 05/15/19

Exquisite writing. I read slowly to savor every sentence. A magical book. Read library copy but just bought the paperback for my own library! Deserves all the prizes it has won. Not for those who want a fast fluffy read. There's a lot here but absolutely worth staying with.

  "The Overstory:A Novel" by gazzingo (see profile) 01/26/21

It took awhile for it to all come together but the individual character’s stories were compelling on their own. It was not a quick read but it was definitely worth the effort.
