As many of you, we read a lot for work, but we also read a lot for fun. We are looking forward to the multiple non-academic books with rivers as a central theme being released this year! Any we missed? What river-based book is your current favorite? #books #newyearsgoals #reading #rivers
Three book covers side-by-side. The River's Daughter by Bridget Crocker; Is A River Alive by Robert Macfarlane; The River Knows Your Name by Kelly Mustian
