The Moth Keeper by K. O'Neill
4.0
I’m never disappointed with this author’s stories.
A heartfelt tale about a young person doing their best to find their place in the world. This story focuses on self doubt, and burn out. It’s gorgeously illustrated, unsurprisingly, but it also is melancholy in a way none of their other books seem to be. All of their books have this utter stillness that pulls you in and tackles big feelings but this one in particular hit differently. It mentions in the notes at the beginning that quarantine played a big role in the feelings and themes and I definitely see that.
All in all another lovely story.
