Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book!
This book really drew me in to the characters. The story revolves around Miranda - daughter of a well-to-do-family that has a summer home in the Adirondack Mountains. A series of tragedies in the family leaves Miranda feeling unmoored - she feels like she has no clear direction in her life, no thoughts of her future, no real feeling of self-worth.
Dix is a long-standing community person - known for always being there to help others. Of course, he takes Miranda under his wing and tries to help her out and ends up falling in love.
Enter Darius - basically another rich kid not from the area who settles in the mountains with no clear path except escaping from his parents and society's expectations. He ends up building a commune of sorts in the mountains which Miranda becomes drawn into.
This story really captivated me. Of course, partly because I live in the Adirondacks and love reading stories that take place here, but mostly because of these characters.
A really good read - would be a good book club pick because these characters have very many layers that would be fun to discuss.
