Finding the Mother Tree: Discovering the Wisdom of the Forest by Suzanne Simard

4.25

Overall I really enjoyed this and learning about the journey not only to learn about the symbiosis between species but also to convince other scientists of it. I would not recommend reading just about the whole book in one day right before it’s due to the library; I felt like I was rushed and it’s somewhat dense, so I would’ve liked more time to absorb everything. 

Minor nitpick - there are a couple of parts that make me think she’s the type of environmentalist who thinks cities and nature are incompatible and that’s a bummer, because cities are better for nature as long as everyone isn’t driving cars, but that’s mostly me being a crank
