Wild Hare’s Daughter (Wild Hares) by Laura Koerber – Review by Shelly Kittell

Wild Hare’s Daughter by Laura Koerber
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is wonderful on so many levels. You are grabbed from the beginning right into the story of Amy wanting to figure out who her dad is and finding she has magic powers. The story is so well-written. Amy is a teen trying to figure out her life, which isn’t easy because she is learning she isn’t what she thought she was. She will be on a journey to discover herself with the help of people in her town, her family and her BFF, Petey. You can’t help but relate to her teen angst. The author did a bang-up job of keeping things running smooth. The author also has slipped some climate thoughts and political thoughts in there. Reading about Bobby describe life at Bear Lake and loss of nature around it, you get a little lesson in climate change. I found it intriguing. It puts another perspective on loss of nature. We are losing some of our nature. The political items in there were spot on. I think it helped pull the story into today. Though I don’t agree with some of the messages, I did find they just fit in well with the story and the hunt for those with magic. This is a really good book. Great for young adults but adults just may enjoy it too.
