Where the Forest Meets the Stars – A Beautiful Audiobook About Grief, Love, and a Mysterious Child

What if a child showed up at your doorstep one night… barefoot, bruised, and claiming to be from the stars?

Where the Forest Meets the Stars by Glendy Vanderah is a stunning audiobook that blends mystery, healing, and quiet wonder in the most unexpected way. And if you're craving a story that’ll both break your heart and gently piece it back together — this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’ll tell you why this audiobook captured the hearts of readers everywhere. We’ll talk about:

• the main character Jo, a scientist recovering from cancer and grief

• Ursa, the strange little girl who may or may not be human

• and how a reclusive neighbor gets drawn into a journey none of them expected

It’s a story about second chances. About how we protect ourselves from love, and how sometimes — the people we least expect can teach us how to live again.

The audiobook is rich with emotion. The writing is vivid and cinematic, and the story stays with you. If you’re into novels that are just a little bit magical, a little bit romantic, and deeply human, this is it.

Here’s one quote that’ll stay with me forever:
"Maybe part of falling in love with someone else is also falling in love with yourself."

If that hit you in the chest… hit play.

You’ll understand why so many readers called it their favorite book of the year.
