âMcLemoreâs second novel is such a lush surprising fable, you half expect birds to fly out of the pages⦠McLemore uses the supernatural to remind us that the bodyâs need to speak its truth is primal and profound, and that the connection between two people is no more anyoneâs business than why the dish ran away with the spoon.â
--Jeff Giles, New York Times Book Review
Anna-Marie McLemoreâs debut novel The Weight of Feathers was greeted with rave reviews, a YALSA Morris Award nomination, and spots on multiple âBest YA Novelsâ lists. Now, McLemore delivers a second stunning and utterly romantic novel, again tinged with magic.
To everyone who knows them, best friends Miel and Sam are as strange as they are inseparable. Roses grow out of Mielâs wrist, and rumors say that she spilled out of a water tower when she was five. Sam is known for the moons he paints and hangs in the trees and for how little anyone knows about his life before he and his mother moved to town. But as odd as everyone considers Miel and Sam, even they stay away from the Bonner girls, four beautiful sisters rumored to be witches. Now they want the roses that grow from Mielâs skin, convinced that their scent can make anyone fall in love. And theyâre willing to use every secret Miel has fought to protect to make sure she gives them up.
Atmospheric, dynamic, and packed with gorgeous prose, When the Moon was Ours is another winner from this talented author.
