I like the mountain setting and personalities. Plot wise: Deanna’s alright for reflections on isolation, but it’s more sex than substance with her and Eddie. Lusa is best so far with her dealing with loss, but especially her warming to Jewel. Garnett interesting with his old man traditionalism but not in the usual bad way often portrayed. His obsessive frustration with Nannie is fun, but a bit much at times.

Seriously, everything I love in a novel. I feel ruined for the rest of the year- how can I top it?!

Writing is lyrical and descriptive. Mostly introductions so far. Deanna is interesting for her not knowing how to be around people (relatable).

Lots of nature imagery and appreciation, which doesn’t do it for me, but I can respect it nonetheless.

But yeah, nothing really happened so far so it’s hard to judge.
