We wanted a way to highlight books on a monthly basis that we’re excited about. Â Ultimately our goal with this is to bring them to your attention too so you can add them to your ‘to read’ lists or however you keep track of that stuff. Â
Book Retailers are going to get a lot of my hard earned money this month… I am pretty sure I’m going to need to own all of these!Â
Ivy Westfall is beyond the fence and she is alone. Abandoned by her family and separated from Bishop Lattimer, Ivy must find a way to survive on her own in a land filled with countless dangers, both human and natural. She has traded a more civilized type of cruelty–forced marriages and murder plots–for the bare-knuckled brutality required to survive outside Westfall’s borders.
But there is hope beyond the fence, as well. And when Bishop reappears in Ivy’s life, she must decide if returning to Westfall to take a final stand for what she believes is right is worth losing everything she’s fought for.
