I just read “Saint Death’s Daughter” by CSE Cooney.  For some reason, the TBR gods have been sending me Necromancers lately.  This one has a literal allergy to violence, but was born into a family of assassins and executioners.  It’s got court drama, family drama, ghosts, revenants, skeletons, shapeshifters, and a really interesting magic system.  There are sweet parts, very grim parts, and it’s delightfully unpredictable and effortlessly queer.
