Heartsong: A Green Creek Novel

I love this series. This was my favorite by far! I love how much further the author took the story on and how sweet the characters are to each other.

The core of the family is so beautiful and writing is immaculate and purposeful.

This author won a special place in my heart and I am so ready for the next installment

4.5 stars

Heartsong is yet another treasure in TJ Klune's series, but it deals with trauma and grief in a completely different way from the first two books. While the earlier novels focused on the intensity of loss and anger, Heartsong shifts to a more introspective and tender exploration of healing and acceptance. It delves deeply into the emotional scars of its characters, offering a poignant look at the different paths they take to overcome their pasts.

This book also brings much-needed asexual representation, enriching the narrative with its thoughtful and respectful portrayal. It's a refreshing change that adds depth to the series and broadens its scope. If you're looking for the smut found in the previous books, you won't find it here, but that doesn't diminish the impact of this story. Instead, Heartsong shines through its heartfelt depiction of love, belonging, and the courage to move forward. It's a powerful addition to the series, proving that emotional resonance doesn't always need to come with heat to leave a lasting impression.

After how lackluster Ravensong was in comparison to Wolfsong, I preemptively wanted to dislike this. I couldn't. Best one so far. Ugh.
