In the beginning I found myself a bit bogged down by details of specific varieties of moss and it got a little tough to chew through. But Kimmerer has a knack for letting those sections go on just long enough to challenge, without letting them become overwhelming and dense like an academic text. The anecdotes and stories interspersed with her knowledge and love of these little oft-ignored plants creates an enthralling picture of the interconnectedness of life on earth, and the beauty we often take for granted in little details.
