Marie In The Moon is one of the most haunting and compelling books I’ve read in a long time, it’s full of dark humour but also filled with warmth, this novel evoked so many emotion I laughed, I cried and then I cried some more, this is a huge testament to the author’s powerful writing. An unusual backdrop to this book made it very unique and a great premise for a story about someone whose suppressed memories are apparent.
This is not your standard crime fiction - it's not about solving a crime, and it's much more of a brooding, slow-burning story. Studies of ages and chemical composition of the basaltic lunar maria may provide clues on the Moon’s internal formation and evolution. The writing as well as character development is once again of an extraordinary quality, and the plot itself all powerful, raw, shocking as well as heartbreaking. The first mission to land a man on the Moon, Apollo 11, landed in a minor lunar mare, the Sea of Tranquility, and the lower stage of the lunar module is still there today.

I felt quite bereft after finishing this book but I know in my own heart that I don’t have to worry to much about Catherine anymore. I felt I was there in Hull, I was Catherine whilst my own life in Leeds continued around me as I read. People clearing out their ruined belongings remembered things long buried: affairs, given-up babies, secret abortions. This is such a unique read and one that’s hard to classify into just one standard genre, my friend Chelsea at The Suspense is Thrilling Me said Louise Beech novels are their own genre and I couldn’t agree more. The traditional nomenclature for the Moon also includes one oceanus (ocean), as well as features with the names lacus ('lake'), palus ('marsh'), and sinus ('bay').billion years ago, as measured by radiometric dating, though crater counting methods suggest that some portions may have formed as recently as 1. However, in a reference frame rotating with the Moon, the centrifugal acceleration the Moon is experiencing is exactly equal and opposite to the gravitational acceleration of the Earth. However, the far side South Pole–Aitken basin contains the lowest elevations of the Moon and yet is only sparingly filled by basaltic lavas. The man in the Moon, the Moon rabbit, and Saint George killing the dragon are examples of lunar pareidolia. Catherine has had to move out of her home into temporary accommodation and decides to volunteer at the local Flood Crisis helpline, an occupation she already has experience in.
