I had never heard of this author or the book when I picked it up browsing. I could not put it down. This novel kept me up three nights in a row. It is a shocking and yet beautiful story. It left me with many questions and has some surprising plot twists. If I had a gripe, it was only that I wished it were longer. I wanted more when I got to the end. But the story stayed with me and I think it is a perfect book club choice. The two main characters have motivations that leave you guessing. I cried at the end and I am still not sure why. I think its because Anthony is wants true love, regardless of what stands in his way. But I know that others will read this complicated novel differently. Highly reccommended.

Last night I discussed Envious Moon with my book club and the author. Prior to this, we weren't familiar with Thomas Greene's work, but had won copies through Book Movement.

We discovered that the book had hooked us all. It was not just that it was an enjoyable book to read, but it worked on multiple levels, with surprising depth and intriguing characters, so there was much to talk about - a very good choice for a group.

It didn't hurt that the setting was a seaside village. We felt very much at home.
