The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World by Robin Wall Kimmerer

hopeful informative reflective fast-paced

4.0

This felt like a bite sized version of Braiding Sweetgrass, which I loved, so you can’t really go wrong here! I did feel like this was a bit underdeveloped and repetitive, I had multiple feelings of Deja vu like “didn’t I read this in her other book or even a few pages ago?” But I think this was totally accessible, heartwarming, and a call to action, even if that action feels small. She doesn’t offer concrete actions to change the larger picture of capitalism, but offers a new way to think and relate to the world around you.
