“The Simple Wild” follows Calla Fletcher, an Alaskan-born, Toronto-raised 26-year-old. When she was 2 years old, her mother took her and left Alaska for good, leaving her pilot father, Wren, behind. Having never seen her father again and having cut all relationship with him when she was in middle school, she is shocked when she hears he’s—perhaps terminally—ill. Embarking on a trip to re-meet her own father, Calla will find more than solitude and tundra in this romantic, heart-shattering book.
Why was this hidden gem kept from me? This was one of the best reads of the year already. I missed out on this book for almost 4 years, that’s inconceivable. I loved Calla and her inner voice. I loved the adventure K.A. Tucker took us on. I loved the raccoons. I loved loved loved the character development. If anything, I feel like this book ended too soon. Good thing there are more books in this series, I need more Calla and Jonah in my life.
If you like romance: read this book. If you like nature: read this book. If you like books that will make you cry a lil: read this book. If you’re breathing: do yourself a favor and just read this book. It’s so so good.
