The Hanged Man
The Hanged Man | Francesca Lia Block
4 posts | 9 read | 2 to read
After the death of her father, Laurel is haunted by a legacy of family secrets, hidden shame, and shattered glass. Immersing herself in the heady rhythms of a city that is like something wild, caged, and pacing, Laurel tries to lose herself. But when she runs away from the past, she discovers a passion so powerful, it brings her roundabout and face-to-face with the demons she wants to avoid. In a stunning departure from her enormously popular Weetzie Bat books, Francesca Lia Block weaves a darkly exhilarating tale of shattered passions and family secrets.

“I watch him and drink some of my margarita. Icy and salty and sharp-sweet and making me feel that way you feel just as you‘re about to fall asleep, your body so heavy and your mind beginning to flash dream-fragments like coming attractions.”

@RiotMom reminded me there was a used bookstore near us today. I wasn't going to go. I went to somewhere completely different for sandwiches. But then, but then, I just had to, I couldn't help myself. And they had a "Fantasy Romance" section!! This is a heavily edited stack. Friends, I might have a problem. ? #bookhaul #bookaddict #booknerdproblems

"I had to walk into the dark, into a dark darker than any I had ever been in. So dark that it was like the dark I imagine inside my body, as if there was no difference between the dark inside of me and the dark outside, as if I had stopped existing."

My pal lent me this book and warned me that it went swimming. It is very crinkly. And the story is WILD.
