libscote 's review for:
Burn Our Bodies Down
by Rory Power
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.
I loved Wilder Girls, so when I saw that Power was back with another book, I was very, very excited. This book is about the different ways we pass our sins on through our family, but very specifically what does a mother pass on to her daughter, to her granddaughter? Margot's life has always been just her and her mother, no information about anyone else, until one day she discovers the phone number of her grandmother. This leads her on a search for family, but what other secrets will be revealed?
There are some horror elements, but I almost prefer this one to other horror stories I've read, where the suspense builds and the actual gore is somewhat limited.
