History of Wolves by Emily Fridlund

I just finished A History of Wolves. 

Right now I feel like a deep cool lake, taking in the scenery of the woods around me. The darkness below, a gentle tugging. The pale sun barely warming the surface. 

The day I opened the book, I plunged in head first into Linda's world in the backwoods of northern Minnesota. 

When a young family moves into a cabin across the lake, she threads her way into their day to day life. Her loneliness pushes it's way beneath their secrets. 

A novel not to miss for sure. Brilliantly written with a haunting beauty that seeps into the bones.
