Description

Perfect for fans of Lisa Frankenstein and Bones and All, this “brutally beautiful” (Cassandra Clare) coming-of-rage horror novel about girl villains and monstrosity follows two sisters?and their growing body count-now with a brand-new look!

Kit and Fancy Cordelle are sisters of the best kind: best friends, confidantes, and accomplices. Daughters of the infamous Bonesaw Killer, Kit and Fancy are used to feeling like outsiders, and that’s just the way they like it. But in their otherworldly East Texan town, where the weird and wild run rampant, they are hardly the oddest or most dangerous creatures around.

Despite their mother’s efforts to curtail their worst impulses, Kit and Fancy eventually give into their deepest, most secret desire-the desire to kill. What starts as a fascination with slicing open and stitching up quickly spirals into a gratifying murder spree. Of course, the sisters aren’t killing just anyone-only the people who truly deserve it. But the girls have learned from the mistakes of their father and know that any shred of evidence could get them caught.

So when Fancy stumbles upon a gateway into another world, she opens a door to the perfect body disposal?and to endless possibilities.

📚Bookseller Ethan recommends 'Minor Black Figures' by Brandon Taylor as your next read!

Over the span of a warm New York summer, this book thoughtfully follows two characters who drift through awkward conversations, strained relationships, and moments misled by anxious communication. There’s a steady undercurrent of tension around race, intimacy, and self-perception, but it never feels overstated. This book captures the excitement of finding someone to connect with in a big city.🌇🌟

How about a non-fic read? Bookseller Ethan recommends 'We Were There' by Lanre Bakare

Bakare brings together a collection of often overlooked voices that feel deeply personal and rooted in place. Moving across different lives and perspectives, explore identity, community, and what it means to grow up in spaces that are often misunderstood. Reading this book, you feel like you’re listening closely to real stories, admiring resilience, and recognising elements of yourself in them, even when the experiences are not your own. It’s a celebration Black Britain beyond London.📚🤓🎶
