Godshot
by Chelsea Bieker
I’m in awe. What a stunning, beautifully written, engrossing story about the bond between a mother and daughter. Lacey May is 14 and lives with her alcoholic mother in a drought-starved small town in California. Her mother and grandmother - and Lacy by default - are wrapped up in a cult where Vern promises to bring the rain again, if only they all follow his every word. When Lacy’s mother abandons her, Lacy is forced to live with her grandmother Cherry, and begins to realize how deeply affected she has become by Vern and how little she cares about anyone besides herself and her taxidermy animals. Lacy is alone and without hope. What follows is a remarkable story of strength and resilience. Of growing up and beginning to understand who you are and what you were made for. I loved this book.
