This book is sort of a fairytale retelling and leans into Little Red Riding Hood meets D&D I think. OurContinue reading “Nettle and Bone by T. Kingfisher”

The Shell and The Octopus by Rebecca Stirling

The Shell and the Octopus was unexpected. I went into this book blind because I enjoy memoirs when I know none of the details about the author or the author’s story. I knew the basic premise of The Shell and the Octopus. The Shell and the Octopus was a story of Rebecca Stirling’s unconventional childhoodContinue reading “The Shell and The Octopus by Rebecca Stirling”
