I love horror books, and Bookshop just featured The Lamb by Lucy Rose in their email newsletter, so of course I had to check it out. It’s a queer, gothic folktale about a girl, her cannibal mother, and the beautiful stray who upends their bloody forest life. Just added to my Want to read list.📚
Margot and Mama live on the edge of a hungry forest, welcoming “strays” in from the cold with wine and warmth—then picking apart their bodies. When a beautiful stray named Eden appears in a snowstorm, Margot must confront desire, hunger, and how far she’ll go to escape.
