Not Even Bones

By Rebecca Schaeffer

Book Overview

"Twisty, grisly, genre-bending and immersive, Not Even Bones will grab you by the throat and drag you along as it gleefully tramples all of your expectations." --Sara Holland, New York Times best-selling author of Everless Dexter meets This Savage Song in this dark fantasy about a girl who sells magical body parts on the black market--until she's betrayed.

Nita doesn't murder supernatural beings and sell their body parts on the internet--her mother does that. Nita just dissects the bodies after they've been "acquired." Until her mom brings home a live specimen and Nita decides she wants out; dissecting a scared teenage boy is a step too far. But when she decides to save her mother's victim, she ends up sold in his place--because Nita herself isn't exactly "human." She has the ability to alter her biology, a talent that is priceless on the black market. Now on the other side of the bars, if she wants to escape, Nita must ask herself if she's willing to become the worst kind of monster.

Customer Reviews

I can't put it down.

The book was really good and I binge read it the day it arrived on my doorstep. I couldn't put it down since it hooked me in and threw me in all sorts of directions. I only did four stars since the writing seemed more for a high school/young adult audience. I do feel that Rebecca Schaeffer skillfully captured the teenage experience of being in the black market. Now I'm chomping at the bit for the second book to arrive in the mail.
