We Shall Be Monsters | Alyssa Wees

Descriere We Shall Be Monsters | Alyssa Wees

A girl marked for death ventures into the wooded realm of the fairies to rescue her mother in this dark, lyrical fantasy about vengeful witches, beastly fathers, and the stories mothers tell to keep their daughters safe-from the author of Nocturne.Gemma Cassata lives with her mother in an isolated antiques shop in Michigan, near a seductive patch of woods concealing an enchanted gateway to fairyland. Gemma knows she's not supposed to go into the woods-her mother, Virginia, has warned her multiple times about the monsters that lurk there-and yet she can't resist.

Virginia understands her daughter's defiance. She knows the allure of the woods all too well. Her own mother warned her about the monsters, and Virginia also did not listen-until a witch cursed her true love just days before their child's birth.

So Virginia will do whatever she can to protect her daughter-even if it means stealing Gemma's memories.
