I was given this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.The Scent Keeper is a book that spoke to my heart. Emmeline is a little girl who lives with her father on a remote island that is filled with enchantment. Her father teaches her, through her senses, all about nature. There are unexplained items, though. Such are the scents which are sealed in bottles with seals, then placed in drawers along one wall of the cabin. There is also the machine which creates them. Emmeline begins to explore more and more as she gets older. One day, unexpectedly, she is thrust into the real world, with the good and the bad. She now needs to find out who she is which is an adventure that places her heart and imagination to stretch beyond their limits.
When I read the description of The Scent Keeper it mentions that this book is "lyrical and immersive." These are words which fit this book perfectly. It is a book about learning how to seek the things that unlock hidden truths and help us find the way to home. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys losing themselves in a book.
