Book 28: “A Skinful of Shadows” by #FrancesHardinge.
Spirits of the dead can linger and take up residence inside certain people. Young Makepeace, a Puritan in 1640s England, is possessed by a bear early in the novel—a fascinating set-up. Life was hard then, especially with shady family she begins to learn disturbing things about. Second Hardinge title I’ve read. This goes in many unexpected places, but drags a bit under too much plot by the end.

Book 28: “Unraveller” by #FrancesHardinge.
Billed as YA, which I’ve grown tired of, this didn’t come off that way at all. Except for a lot of yelling, there’s nothing significant that marks the two protagonists as young. One can unravel curses, the other is formerly cursed. And their world sits uneasily but peaceably next to The Wilds. Found this on a list of recommended books from 2023—I can only do the same. A new favorite author.

Five lying noses 🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥 for #TheLieTree by #FrancesHardinge. A terrific whodunnit with a mystical twist. Between this and Cuckoo Song I'm really enjoying Hardinge's writings. #Books #Bookstodon

It's a glorious day that starts with a new Frances Hardinge book: UNRAVELLER. The way she world-builds is like few other authors I know: effortless, as if she doesn't much mind whether you know what's going on (although she makes sure you can figure it out.) It's fantasy & reminds me of NEVERMOOR, but it's #youngadult instead of #middlegrade. I'm in love again.
