However, the two that were focused on the most out of that list were cancer and depression. Many of these things happened only briefly in the narrative. These elements included accidents, infidelity, prostitution, child abuse, drugs, cancer, depression, and murder. I wanted to make sure I highlighted a few of the darker elements of the book.
I adored each of them as individuals, but I also adored their relationships with one another. The three main characters were Jo, Gabe, and Ursa. The characters were incredible and the relationships between the three main characters and the handful of support characters was so realistic and wonderful! And I loved how the story was so easy going, but it didn’t shy away from difficulties and moments of intensity. The descriptions of people, places, and things were perfect. My Thoughts on Where the Forest Meets the StarsĪs I had mentioned above, I was so excited to jump into this book! I’m so thrilled to say that it actually surpassed the hype I had for it.įirst of all, this book was wonderfully written. However, they both still fear that something is wrong. While they constantly check to see if she has been reported missing, they are a bit relieved that they don’t see her face on the list of the missing. Over time, Jo and Gabe learn how exceptionally smart Ursa is and they take her under their wings. They try to bring the authorities in, but Ursa runs away and the cop makes Jo question if forcing her to return would be safe. They both know that is it wrong to let Ursa stay with them, but they both feel very protective of her as well. Soon, Jo and her neighbor, a man named Gabe that struggles with agoraphobia and depression, become tangled up in the situation. No matter how hard Jo presses the girl to tell her why she won’t return home, all the girl says is that she is here from the stars and that she needs to witness five miracles before she returns. Over the next few days, the Ursa keeps returning. Jo soon learns that the girls name is Ursa. Jo is very weary of the girls presence, but takes pity on her and gives her something to eat. When she arrives home after a long day in the field, she spots a young girl. In this novel, we center around Jo, a young cancer survivor who has rented a cottage in the country in order to complete a research project about birds to complete her PhD.
I’m so very thankful to TLC Book Tours for giving me the chance to read this novel! It was one of my most anticipated reads for March, and I was just ecstatic to see it pop up as an option for a book tour! My Thoughts on Where the Forest Meets the Stars by Glendy Vanderah I loved every second of it! This book immediately found it’s place on my top ten favorite books. This book was also thrilling, terrifying, and frustrating, and it tackled a number of really difficult elements. However, this book wasn’t all star-shine and baby kittens. Where the Forest Meets the Stars by Glendy Vanderah is a wonderfully heartwarming tale about the challenges that life throws our way, but how the power of love can heal all.
