Nature's Confession

" . . . I have to say it's one of the best books I have ever read." 

— video reviews by Louise Colclough

The epic tale of two teens

in a fight to save a warming planet,

the universe . . . and their love

"The eco-novel is wonderful and reminds me of classic science fiction I watched or read as a kid. It was a genre that fascinated me then, and this book has joined that memory. The novel is epic in that it doesn't just tell a story (which it does do too), but it puts our very survival into question while romping through the universe or discovering new quantum physics that are both scientific and spiritual in nature. In the meantime, universal symbols are unearthed, codes are investigated, fat corporations are dominating, a romance is blossoming, computers come alive, and native tribes and Nature on another planet bring our own treasured past into the future."

"Morin is proving herself to be one of the most interesting storytellers for teens."

—Teen Reads

"Fans of science fiction and dystopian novels will love Nature's Confession, and I would recommend the book to teens and young adults interested in a fun, thought-provoking read."

—5-Star Review Award, LitPick, VBat

"Points to Morin for writing a diverse character without emphasizing his ethnicity... This is a book that gets better the second time around... Nature's Confession crosses the bridge between teen and adult fiction, and may aspire to be appointed as a new classic."

—Offbeat YA

"What I enjoyed the most was the author's ability to combine serious concerns about the environment on Earth, with a sense of humor, at times almost a double-take slapstick, and obviously her wish the polluters on earth, and the policy-makers who foster those polluters could be slapped upside of the head with a dose of reality. Instead, she gives us sublime comedy, which is much better than being preached to, or crying that the sky is falling. Although, I bet she could write a pretty good version of The Sky Is Falling."

—Midwest Book Review, David W. Wooddell

"It was incredibly tough to come up with a favourite, but in the end, I chose on JL Morin's, Nature's Confession. It's a zany, fantastical read and a product of a clearly whimsical mind. This book, however, covers some serious and important topics that are affecting the planet we live on, so very relevant. It reminded me a little of Star Trek, infused with The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and a little Dr Who thrown in the wonderful mix."

—Top Fiction Reads, Marinovich Books

"Nature's Confession is a riveting contribution to the burgeoning field of climate fiction, providing an imaginative, powerful call for sustainable action over the myopia of corporate logic."

—Dr Pietari Kääpä, University of Stirling
