Bones

'If seeing someone cry while reading a book makes you want to pick it up immediately, let me save you the wait - this is that book.'

'This book deserves six stars... I feel like I'm going to throw up, but in a good way.'

'If you loved Boys of Tommen... but also a Mad Max post-apocalyptic type world, then the Bones series might be for you.'

A dark and gritty dystopian romantasy - perfect for fans of Daggermouth, Silver Elite and The Poison Daughter - as seen on BookTok!

Bones was born with the miraculous power to heal, but all her gift has brought is death. As a child, her older brother, Wolf, trained her to survive and so she did. The blood on her hands will never wash off. She has been broken, scarred, and abused in so many ways-but she is alive.

After finally escaping the ruthless raiders who imprisoned her for twelve horrible years, Bones is haunted by her past and desperate for atonement. Freedom is short-lived, however, as the rumours of her abilities catch up to her. Dragged to the northwest mountain stronghold known as the Vault, Bones finds herself involuntarily drawn to the tight-knit crew who captured her, and the feelings she begins to develop for Trey, the heart of the crew, scare her more than all the horrors of her past.

Bones struggles to maintain her distance, navigate her trauma, and deal with the harrowing new ways her healing powers are used to root out a budding revolution. As her defences slowly break down, everything she believes about herself and the world is challenged, forcing her to confront questions around love, survival, and what's worth fighting for when all else seems lost.

'Devastatingly good... The last 15%??!! I don't know if I'll ever recover.'

'It's been 24 hours and every time I think of it, I tear up.'

'A dark post-apocalyptic romantasy gem... Go read it. Then we can be sad together.'

'I can't breathe... THIS BOOK HAS GIVEN ME CHEST PAIN.'
