My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Ever have a book keep popping up in your life? Every website seems to recommend it to you. Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher was one of those books for me. I finally broke down and checked it out of the library. I'm glad I did! I didn't read a summary so I didn't know what to expect. There was probably going to be some nettle and maybe some bones? Turns out it is more fairy tale than I would have thought. It actually has godmothers! The fantasy elements were very fun. While the main plot is very serious, a woman sets out to save her sister from an abusive relationship, there is a lot of humor. The band of helpers she collects along the way is delightful. If you want to read an epic adventure without investing in 300+ pages, this is a great choice. It's got everything while also being a fast-paced read.
Bonus points for the best use of bones ever!
