"Decadent and richly imagined...topples expectations and skillfully re-maps vice and virtue, indulgence and shame as we know them. This book is wildly new and deliciously satisfying."— @AlexKleeman
Happy pub day to Chana Porter's THE THICK AND THE LEAN! https://t.co/9YXz0NVHnb
I finished The Thick and The Lean by Chana Porter last week and please add this to your TBR pile, my friends. A science-fantasy setting you can sink your teeth into that supports a decadent, bittersweet story of hunger, physical and caloric, exploring the price of comfort & joy.
@notalone_horror Sally No-Face for a medical horror take, The Nutcracker for a more mundane flavor (the titular killer gets up to some grisly stuff, but I like to emphasize the ravages of ballet on the body), and the Limehouse Lurker's blood magic (if the vampire is old) can also fit the bill
this one just hits different... shoutout to @litboll for doing all the heavy lifting behind the scenes. can't wait to work with you, @carrienap ! see ya'll on the other side!
