A review by ksbrennan
Bone & Bread by Saleema Nawaz

4.0

"It is a perfect day and we are all terribly flawed."

Bone and Bread is a very beautifully written book that slowly circles closer and closer to finding meaning is the life and death of one of the main characters.

It's a book about family, and about sisterhood and parenthood in particular. It's about the responsibility of taking care of the people closest to you, as well as the selfish protection of personal relationships. It's about how you see yourself, and how you're seen by others.

The plot is a bit slow, but the story is definitely worth it.
