Wanted to like this after all the hype but I found myself just wanting it to end. They definitely drug it out.
Loved it! The pieces came together in such a creative way not only to explain the plot but the characters themselves.
Almost the entire time I was reading this book I was desperate for a strong female character, constantly irritated by the weakness of the women trounced on by the misogynistic men in the novel, and it wasn’t until the very last page where I realized she was there all along. I really did enjoy this book. It intrigued me the whole way through even though it has a million different characters and perspectives that make it best read in a short amount of time- which is easy if you’ve got the time because it really does draw you in. Do yourself a favor and make a character list though. I missed a big piece of the mystery puzzle by overlooking the name of one of the characters. If you’re anything like me, be prepared to feel deeply, both anguish and rage (seriously, these rich, white men). 4.5 ⭐️
I would never have read this book if it weren't for Book Club, since I don't usually grab suspense/thriller novels. While it was difficult to sort out the many characters at first, it turned out to be a very enjoyable read. Moore's writing style is engaging and lively. Her characters are interestingly flawed and dynamic. The God of the Woods had me on the edge of my seat.
