October Novel: Honeysuckle - Bar Fridman-Tell
Are you an avid romantasy fan, keen to meet new people, and a little bit crafty? Schrödinger’s Books and Village Beads have joined forces to bring you Charms & Chapters: Romantasy Book & Social Club. Meet new people, gain new insights, and make new connections as we dissect your favourite parts of this novel, finishing the night off with some beading and time to connect with others.
Once upon a time, on the edge of a forest, there was a lonely child with only his older sister for company. So his sister made him a playmate — Daye, a girl woven from carefully selected flowers and words. Rory is gloriously happy, until he learns that Daye is a seasonal creature. At the end of each season, she must be woven back together or fall gruesomely apart. And when, one autumn, his sister fails to return home from university in time, Rory has no choice but to watch his best friend slowly crumble. Realizing he can no longer rely on his sister to keep Daye alive, Rory determines he must leave home to learn how to do it himself. Rory sinks deeper into research and experiments to end the cycle of bloom and decay. But as Rory grows older, his thoughts turn darker . . . An entrancing, inventive and unsettling reimagining of the story of Blodeuwedd from Welsh mythology, Honeysuckle by Bar Fridman-Tell is a feminist Frankenstein with flowers; a deliciously dark, twisted, horror-tinged fairytale with rot at its heart.
