What strange creatures we are. I can't wait to read this author's future work. So real, raw, tender, emotional. The best book I have read this year.

I LOVED this book and will be recommending it to every woman I'm close to. It is a book I will reread again and again. empathy for the author's struggles, understanding as a fellow mother of four , a shared love of wild places; her descriptions are utterly magical.

:)

I was soon gripped by the story of a shaken life and a demanding lifestyle. This is a gorgeous book. I have both the audiobook and the print, as it's one of those beautiful reads that you just want to absorb into yourself in every possible medium.

Caro Giles is an exceptional force - holding together her tribe of four daughters with determination and love, and somehow able to find the energy to describe their days with a realism that will draw you in. A heartfelt tale about the intensity and beauty of mothering intertwined with the natural world. Caro Giles' 'Twelve Moons' speaks to my heart, my soul and my lived experience as a parent carer.

This is a woman’s raw tale, and it is overwhelmingly female, feminine, womanly. I've cried, I've laughed, I've recognised myself and my family and our love of nature. Caro's style and voice are so evocative and expressive, its a book you don't want to put down.

Twelve Moons arrived on publication day and I was straight into it. Such an important story and I thank Caro for sharing it so generously, empathetically and exquisitely. But I’d say it’s for men too.
