On the other hand, T. #Kingfisher 's imaginative #fairytale "Wie man einen Prinzen tötet" (engl. #NettleandBone) surprised me in a very positive way. I didn't expect much, but it was different, told in a eerily beautiful way. I don't know if it was/is the best, but I still like it! #fantasy #booksky

« L’amour d’un chien d’os, songea-t-elle, se penchant sur la patte pour continuer son ouvrage. C’est tout ce que je mérite désormais. D’un autre côté, peu d’humains méritaient vraiment l’amour d’un chien vivant. Il y a des cadeaux qu’on ne mérite jamais. »

« Cela n’avait pas d’importance. Elles n’étaient pas des hommes et l’histoire des hommes s’écrivait dans l’utérus des femmes en lettres de sang. Elle ne pourrait jamais changer cela. »

I finished Nettle and Bone by T. Kingfisher. This one is very good, strongly recommend it. It's not epic fantasy, but still very much fantasy with a great cast of characters and a good mix of seriousness and humor. Really just a fun read.

I #AmReading Nettle and Bone by T. Kingfisher. It won the Hugo for Best Novel, beating out Nona the Ninth which I recently read and loved.

This isn't the kind of fairytale where the princess marries a prince.

It's the one where she kills him.

From Hugo, Nebula, and Locus award-winning author T. Kingfisher comes an original and subversive ...

I only have one library loan left, an audiobook of T. Kingfisher’s “Nettle & Bone” I’ve been listening to while doing some chores.

To me that’s a sign of a long weekend well spent. There’s nothing like revisiting a great story on a rainy day.
