The Beauty

Logan Schenk

Redoing this long review. Wasn’t for me at the moment when I decided to pick it up. If you like commentary on gender roles then this is a great pick for you! I was just disappointed the buildup to the Beauty in the story wasn’t longer. It felt like it rushed to get them in the picture. 
Maybe I’m just too used to some of the horror too. Whatever you think, give it a try if you even remotely think you’d like it! I think that’s the best way to go about this book :)

"Somewhere away from the cities and towns, in the Valley of the Rocks, a society of men and boys gather around the fire each night to listen to their history recounted by Nate, the storyteller. Requested most often by the group is the tale of the death of all women ... One evening, Nate brings back new secrets from the woods: peculiar mushrooms are growing from the ground where the women's bodies lie buried. These are the first signs of a strange and insidious presence unlike anything ever known before"--Back cover.
