It is the early 1980s and fifteen-year-old Libby is obsessed with The Field Guide to the Trees of North America, a gift from her father before he died. She finds solace in “The Kingdom,” a stand of red oak and mountain laurel near her home in suburban Pennsylvania, where she can escape from her family and share menthols with her best friend. One night, while driving home, Libby’s mother, exhausted with the fighting in the backseat, pulls over and orders Libby’s little sister Ellen to walk home. What none of this family knows as they drive off is what will happen next.

this book is beautiful, it’s so descriptive I felt like I was standing there with the main character. There are some points within the plot that I felt like didn’t really have any reason to be there, but overall it was great. Every character had depth and although there were a lot of names to juggle, everyone had their flaws and perfections.
The one thing I didn’t like was the climax to something I expected to be big, some sort of twist or something but it kinda left me disappointed in the end. The narrators voice is what really hooked me, though. It felt like the main character was speaking directly to me. I could hear emotion in her voice when I know the book didn’t describe what emotion the characters were feeling. Just all around breathtaking.
