To the Moon and Back - Target Exclusive Edition - by Eliana Ramage (Hardcover)

A beautifully written story with something for everyone. Highly recommend.

I really liked how this story was told as I felt very invested what was going to happen next. The theme around family and heritage really clicked with me, and I kept thinking about my own background and relationships while reading. I grabbed it from Reese’s book club picks, and now I get why she chose it. Her recommendations never let me

READ THIS BOOK! I DEVOURED this absolute gem of a novel. It strikes a perfect balance of moving, funny, eye-opening, and heart-wrenching - all with a clever, engaging style of prose that kept me hooked. Ramage grapples with weighty emotional and political issues with nuance, grace, and a sense of humour. Somehow, she managed to weave laugh-out-loud moments throughout the entire novel, even while taking me on a journey of intense feelings as the story progressed. The characters all felt whole and complex, and I loved getting the opportunity to experience them growing and changing through the different eras covered by this book. As a queer person, I enjoyed the oh-so-relatable representations of being a baby-queer growing into queer identity. And as a white person, I was grateful for the generosity of the novel in sharing a Cherokee perspective on Native histories, identities, and communities. I was left feeling tender and hopeful when I finished this novel, and looking forward to reading more from this author!

This was such a fun book to read. The plot was amazing, and the included texts, social media posts, and dating profiles really let us get to know the characters!
