Anyone read this please? Browsing Amazon and it's a bestseller...but wondering if it's a novel or a nature book?

Thanks

It’s fiction- a series of linked stories about characters who live in the same house in the same woods over many years.

I loved it. In my top 3 favourite books this year.
It's a novel that spans a few hundred years from the first person to lay down a groundstone and call a small piece of the forest home.
I loved the description, I loved how it didn't take itself terribly seriously, I loved how invested I would get, only for nothing to matter with the passage of time.

@floorchid thank you ! 😊 just wondering whether to actually read it or listen to it...

I read it recently. I loved it. It is beautifully written and surprising. Yes nature is involved but I wouldn't call it a book about nature at all.
