Behold the Bones by Natalie C. Parker

4.0

"take a stone, take a flower flower flower
these will only last an hour
but take a bone or take some strife
these will last for all my life
she's so mad mad mad
she's so very bad."


Wow, what a wonderful 2nd book. I didn't even know this was a duology until I was going through new releases and this one popped up. I was wary - I'd loved book 1 - the lyrical quality of the writing, the lore and the Louisiana southern flair - I'd loved all of it in the first book. So I was worried a 2nd book wouldn't compare. But I Loved this one. I fell right back into the heat and sweat of the swamp and the small town and into the lives of three girls who were so close and loved each other so much. I loved being back, loved every page and raced right through it.

if there's a third one - which I doubt but if there is - then I will definitely devour it!
