found families, bones and whimsy*
in this tale by no means flimsy




*not to mention exploration of deep characters and multifaceted relationships, utterly engrossing worldbuilding, skeletal mice and footnotes

It felt very… surreal. Honestly it was just hard for me to take it seriously

Saint Death's Daughter is bonkers, but it's also an absolute triumph of a novel that deserves all the love in the world. It's a story that's so many things at once that the best thing you can do is dive in and experience it.

You'll fall in love with Lanie and her found family as they prove, again and again, that kind is one of the bravest things you can be in a world that begs you not to be.
