Welcome to Litsy!

A man kills his wife and two of his three children, shocking the small island community where he lives. Twenty years his surviving son returns to the island forcing everyone to face their complicated feelings about what happened and what it means. This was so good. The emotions in this book escalated as layers to the story were uncovered until I was turning pages with my heart firmly lodged in my throat.

After a devastating loss, Ester decides her purpose in life is to hunt the manticores. Her quest for vengeance with a partner in the ferocious roc she trains may cost her everything.

Loved this novella! It starts immediately this amazing partnership that Ester builds w/ her roc, & escalated into this fantastically described hunts. But there‘s also a very human thread of obsession in the face of loss & what Ester is prepared to sacrifice🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

I received this uncorrected proof through Goodreads. It‘s a book of questions, by experts in various fields... they run the gambit from just plain cheeky to so deep in their field as to be over anyone else‘s head, but the majority are thought provoking and interesting and I enjoyed the reading experience.

And it was my book 4 of my #14Book14Weeks with @TheHeartlandBookFairy
