AND THE TREES STARE BACK is officially available o AND THE TREES STARE BACK is officially available on Netgalley! This incredibly personal book is my heart on the page and I hope you all love it as much as I do. DESCRIPTION: 1989, Soviet Estonia. In sixteen-year-old Vik’s village—and the cursed forest that looms beyond—danger is everywhere. Soldiers threaten those who so much as dream of dissent. The villagers’ words are sharp with accusations of witchcraft. And deep in the heart of the wood, a lantern-eyed spirit lies in wait to disappear those who wander too far past the trees. Vik knows because five years ago, she led her little sister Anna over that invisible line—and never saw her again. The only thing Vik has wished for since then is her sister’s safe return. So when Anna stumbles back through the tree line on the anniversary of her disappearance, it’s a miracle… Or is it a lie? As unsettling inconsistencies between this girl and the one who vanished reveal themselves, Vik starts to doubt whether this Anna is her Anna—or something else entirely. Whoever she is, one thing is clear: she was never meant to escape the trees. And unless Vik can uncover the secrets of the forest, it’s going to take her back. Rooted in real history with a speculative twist, the horrors of And The Trees Stare Back are the ones we already know: existing as a marginalized person under a hostile state. Raising powerful questions about whose humanity counts and how to survive if the governing body decides yours doesn't, this politically incisive folk-horror irresistibly explores ever-relevant legacies of activism and solidarity. #AndTheTreesStareBack #gigigriffis
My work here is done. "What kind of expectations My work here is done. "What kind of expectations are we setting on a book if you can't award it a five star for giving you space to safely unpack trauma without feeling as though you're being wrung through a machine? To the weirdo, witchy, gothic, horror, queer gxrlies, looking for something to entertain you, I'd say check this out."
