Narration To Books When the Moon Was Ours
To everyone who knows them, best friends Miel and Sam are as strange as they are inseparable. Roses grow out of Miel’s wrist, and rumors say that she spilled out of a water tower when she was five. Sam is known for the moons he paints and hangs in the trees, and for how little anyone knows about his life before he and his mother moved to town. But as odd as everyone considers Miel and Sam, even they stay away from the Bonner girls, four beautiful sisters rumored to be witches. Now they want the roses that grow from Miel’s skin, convinced that their scent can make anyone fall in love. And they’re willing to use every secret Miel has fought to protect to make sure she gives them up.

A beautiful book, all the way from its dedication to the author's note at the end (which is a must read).When the Moon Was Ours is a magical realism novel - possibly my favourite genre - and as such, most of the story straddles the line between reality and the fantastical.

This was SO beautifully written. I really adore this author and my favourite from her is The Weight of Feathers.
I chose this book as my Throwback Thursday pick of the week. You can read this and all of my reviews at LitWitWineDine. This book has been on my NetGalley naughty list for some time.

I wasnt sure if would enjoy the genre but Id been hearing so many good things that I just had to read

Sam has a secret past and devotes his time to painting moons, which he hangs from the boughs of trees all over town.
