P. Nicholson: I was educated by this book, learned things about moss I never knew from a Native American perspective. Now when I see any my eyes look for things about it that I learned from this book.

Tennstar: This is more technical than Braiding Sweetgrass and does not have as many morsels but it is still a good read. It is about mosses however so be prepared to learn about them. For me, it was a joy.

Kenneth L. Williams: I enjoyed reading, Braiding Sweetgrass so much I took a chance on Moss and was delighted with it. Such a wonderful way to learn new information that you into a different world. The diversity of moss and how fascinating they truly are. Kimmerer tells their story with Heart and care what is often overlooked. She brings her view too you in a way that puts the reader weight there with her. I would buy whatever she wants to write about and you feel you know her and all of her family😊

Samira P.: A good book but a little slow. Not as good as Braiding Sweetgrass but still interesting.

Mardechel: I first "read" this as an audio book from my library, and then just HAD to buy the hard copy to refer back to. It is a beautiful blend of science, appreciation of nature, and the author's own experiences in her field. Due to the very specific topic of mosses, I did find it felt heavy at times and couldn't just endlessly listen/read, but had to digest in chunks (not a bad thing though!). ***SPOILER*** I actually teared up during the chapter about the very rich man; that the author made me feel THAT connected to what she felt and the assault on nature is remarkable.

E. Husk: A wonderful, unusual book which encourages us to see our world differently.
I am noticing moss everywhere now and appreciating ist qualities. I am saddened that such amazing, ancient and tiny plants are dismissed and removed by just the kinds of chemicals from which they can protect us.
Long live moss and insightful writers like Robin Wall Kimmerer.
