What a strange, creepy, hopeful little story. This book was recommended to me by storygraph and I chose it because it had an interesting cover. It was a very interesting but uncomfortable story about a small community where all the women have died from a fungus but a new kind of life comes from their body. It's creepy and strange with a fair amount of body horror. Overall I liked it quite a bit and would recommend it as a quick read to those who like weird books!
