Behold the Bones by Natalie C. Parker
5.0
Behold the Bones is a fantastic return to Sticks, Louisiana.
Told primarily from the point of view of Candace Pickens, this book is a lesson is how to paint relationships in a story. Couple that with some excellent world-building and Sticks' unique flavor of magic, and you have one hell of a good read.
I particularly enjoy Natalie's ability to illustrate a characters thoughts in a way we can't help but know exactly how they feel:
"I sweep my light at the level of the water, ready to pee if I spot the flash of eyeshine."
A fun, fast romp that I recommend to anyone who likes fantasy.
