The story follows Temperance, a young ogress raised by witches, as she learns about who she really is and what’s she’s capable of after being forced on a journey to save her village from “the mist.” The same mist she was apparently born within.
The mist mutates people and animals, resulting in some delightfully sinister creatures for Temperance to fight.
I’d recommend this for mature teens and older, as there’s some (non-sexual) nudity and violence. I love that body diversity is celebrated in this book, including a plus size main character. It’s also sapphic, and features a diverse cast of characters.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an eARC in exchange for my honest review.
