A DAKOTA JOHNSON TEATIME BOOK CLUB PICK · INSTANT #2 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERA FOLK TALE. A HORROR STORY. A LOVE STORY. AN ENCHANTMENT."A dark, gorgeous concoction."-New York Times"Beautiful, terrifying . . . . Destined to become a classic."-Washington PostFrom an incendiary new talent, a contemporary queer folktale about a mother and daughter living in the woods, for fans of Angela Carter, Margaret Atwood, and Julia Armfield.Margot and Mama have lived by the forest ever since Margot can remember.When Margot is not at school, they spend quiet days together in their cottage, waiting for strangers to knock on their door. Strays, Mama calls them. People who have strayed too far from the road. Mama loves the strays. She feeds them wine, keeps them warm. Then she satisfies her burning appetite by picking apart their bodies.But Mama's want is stronger than her hunger sometimes, and when a beautiful, white-toothed stray named Eden turns up in the heart of a snowstorm, Margot must confront the shifting dynamics of her family, untangle her own desires, and make her bid for freedom.With this gothic coming-of-age tale, debut novelist Lucy Rose explores how women swallow their anger, desire, and animal instincts-and wrings the relationship between mother and daughter until blood drips from it.

I can finally listen to all my audiobooks seamlessly with ListenBook. The customizable playback controls and chapter navigation make it a breeze. Looping playback has taken my language learning to new heights. Highly recommended! I’d listen to this narrator read anything! Their voice was so expressive and fitting for the material. The story itself was great, but the narration took it to the next level. Definitely a 5-star experience. The subtle background music at key moments enhanced the experience without being distracting. More audiobooks should use this technique when appropriate!
Dark Matter
This app's convenience has made my audiobook addiction thrive! Streamlining audiobook enjoyment – this app's functionality is truly impressive. Adjustable playback speed and volume control make for a customized experience. This audiobook was neither good nor bad - simply average. The narrator's delivery was professional but uninspired, and the recording quality was clean though not exceptional. It provided satisfactory entertainment without standing out from similar titles. It was fine. The narrator did an adequate job but nothing about the performance particularly stood out to me. Got me through my commute though.
