Review of The Comfort of Crows by Margaret Renkl 

Treated myself to a copy of this book and I am so glad I did. I adored it. Five star read plus five star artwork A beautiful book that I know I will go back to again and again. Only January and I’ve read one of the best books of the year! Thank you Doris and Heidi for introducing me to a new favourite. ❤

Such a great choice! Loved the essays and the artwork, and thank you for reading us the vernal pool description.

Such a great read. Can’t wait to buy one.

Thank you, Heidi! 😊 I really loved this book, as well! Educational and poetic. So lovely! 💚

Absolutely love your channel! Especially your nature selections. So grateful!

I loved The Comfort of Crows, an absolute warm hug of a book. Looking forward to reading the February choices🤗

Such a visually beautiful book! Thank you for showing us the illustrations inside! Sounds like such a wonderful read as well. ❤

Loved this book! Excited to join you in real time in Feb with books I haven't read before :)

Thanks, Heidi!🌷I’m happy to see that I can get the same edition, with the stunning cover and artwork, also here in the Netherlands. Very much looking forward to reading it!

I really really appreciate this book. I think Margaret Renkl is very nice and interesting person. I like the mix of her personal life and the observation of the nature. She says all her thoughts in a very caring way. Thanks for having choose this book.

Oh, boy! I am requesting this from the library immediately!

Such a super great read -- her next book will be an automatic buy. As I read the book I found myself relaxing and smiling.

I’m going to read her book Graceland now because I loved her other two so much. Great read! Perfect way to start the year. 🤓😻

I will definitely pick up this book in the future! I actually bought it for my Dad for Christmas and I think it will be for him for sure after hearing your review

I enjoyed The Comfort of Crows - it kicked off my current nonfiction hyperfocus 😂 Really lovely.

I'm still waiting for this from my library. It's taking so long ... now I want to read it even more.

I meant to join in with this read, but then used up my Hoopla slots to get it. I’ll catch up with it later this year since it seems everyone loves it.

The Renkel book sounds great. I still haven't read Late Migrations so I hope to read that soon. I read A Darker Wilderness last year and it doesn't have any fiction. I will say the essays were not all entirely about nature, but it is always a component of the essay. I didn't dislike the book, but I liked some essays a lot more than others. I think it is worth reading to see some very different perspectives on the nature.

Lovely review of a lovely book! 🥰

love nature pics😁😊

I will read the book later in the year. I tried the audio on scribd a week or so ago (yes, I started late, I admit) and it just didnt work for me. But I'm all set for Black Faces, White Spaces for this month 😃

Is it too late to be part of your Nature Book Club?
