Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy 4 stars Thank you @macmillan.audio and netgalley for my gifted copy. MacAudio2024 Dominic and his three children chose to stay behind after a group of scientists left a deserted island trying to save humanity by managing a seed bank. This was a story that focused a lot on the crisis of climate change and its effects on people and the world. A woman is washed ashore, alive, and slowly her story is unraveled. The characters were amazingly developed and beautiful. The literary writing swept me along for the ride. The pacing was on the slower side, but I still enjoyed the storytelling. I listened to the audiobook and at times was confused as whose POV it was at that time. Other than that, the narrators were great. There were many themes of climate change, family, parenthood, love and loss that were laced together in a beautiful way. LTKHome LTKFindsUnder50 LTKSeasonal
