 - NETTLE AND BONE is a short, strange, wonderful book. It's both horrifying and funny, managing to balance a serious plot with delightfully weird characters.
- The group that Marra gathers along her journey is a great little ragtag crew, each character unique and full even with the book's brevity.
- I mean, don't you want to read a book that has both "burn the patriarchy" vibes AND a chicken possessed by a demon?

thefourthvine: this book is Not For You. 
Warnings, an incomplete list:
Domestic abuse, political expediency, childbirth, child death, miscarriages, body horror (hands and teeth), claustrophobia, ghosts and dead things, fey bargaining at the Goblin Market, possession causing the possessed to do cross gender things against their will (nonhuman), assorted fairytale peril.
Fantastic, loved it.
