Boneless Mercies by April Genevieve TucholkeRelease date: October 2nd, 2018
Amazon / Book Depository / Indiebound
Summary (from goodreads): A dark and gorgeously drawn standalone YA fantasy about a band of mercenary girls in search of female glory. Won in a major six-house auction!
Frey, Ovie, Juniper, and Runa are the Boneless Mercies—girls hired to kill quickly, quietly, and mercifully. But Frey is weary of the death trade and, having been raised on the heroic sagas of her people, dreams of a bigger life.
When she hears of an unstoppable monster ravaging a nearby town, Frey decides this is the Mercies' one chance out. The fame and fortune of bringing down such a beast would ensure a new future for all the Mercies. In fact, her actions may change the story arc of women everywhere.
The part where I talk: Okay, honestly, I have to point out how cool this cover is. I really like this colour scheme, and I like seeing covers that aren't just text. That's just not a trend I'm into.
This just sounds so good. I am curious about how this will handle non-cis identities, so we'll see! It'd be really cool to see something like this that's diverse and handles many types of identities.
Okay, til next time!
Peace and cookies,
Laina
