A review by meganlee96
Cormorant Lake by Faith Merino

5.0

I feel like I say this about every book, but I really loved this book!

The entire book had this air of love but there's something almost melancholy just in the background.

It raises questions about justice and morality and shows so many variations of motherhood. The common running theme is love without boundries and acceptance. The family dynamics are well explored and flawless.

The writing is lyrical and cohesive. Merino has an excellent talent for conveying imagery to the reader, every scene in this book I could see clearly in my own head.

This book really lends itself to escapism. A chance to leave behind this world and know the characters in Cormorant Lake.

A really great 5 star read that I know I'll definitely be reading again.

Thank you Faith Merino, Blackstone publishing and Netgalley for an eArc of this book in exchange for review.
