I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately. I've been moving and going through our things. Packing, unpacking, and organizing all of our stuff is so ridiculously overwhelming that I haven't felt like doing anything at all. Add NaNoWriMo and NBRC's Tower Teams on to that and you have a perfect storm, which led to me saying "screw that, I'm just going to read". 
 I'm glad that Nest is the book I chose to read. I'm not sure that any other book would have been able to pierce through the wall of 'meh' that I was putting up. 
 Chirp is an amazing character. She's the sort of character that feels more real than the pages of the book(or the Kindle, in my case). 
 This is a beautiful story about family and hope, heartbreak and friendship. 
 I received an ARC from the publisher via Netgalley.
