<p>Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng- by Kylie Lee Baker is fucking brilliant. I still have 3 chapters left, but I am on the edge of my seat. The writing is very well done. The story line is phenomenal even as it is disturbing. Trigger warnings for racism, hate crimes, gore, violence. It's a definite 5 star read for me thus far. </p><p>@bookstodon<br><a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#books</a> <a href="/tags/bookstodon/" rel="tag">#bookstodon</a></p>
