Milla knows two things to be true: Demons are real, and fear will keep her safe.   Milla’s whole world is her family’s farm. She is never allowed to travel to the village and her only friend is her beloved older brother, Niklas. When a bright-eyed girl named Iris comes to stay, Milla hopes her loneliness might finally be coming to an end. But Iris has a secret she’s forbidden to share: The village is cursed by a demon who possesses girls at random, and the townspeople live in terror of who it will come for next.   Now, it seems, the demon has come for Iris. When Iris is captured and imprisoned with other possessed girls, Milla leaves home to rescue her and break the curse forever. Her only company on the journey is a terrible new secret of her own: Milla is changing, too, and may soon be a demon herself.   Suspenseful and vividly imagined, The Cold Is in Her Bones is a novel about the dark, reverberating power of pain, the yearning to be seen and understood, and the fragile optimism of love.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49524446200081,"sku":"GOR009752023","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49887168987409,"sku":"GOR013622824","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1471160882.jpg?v=1750827254"},{"product_id":"beast-is-an-animal-book-peternelle-van-arsdale-9781471163531","title":"The Beast is an Animal","description":"Alys was seven when the soul eaters came to her village.   These soul eaters are twin sisters who were abandoned by their father and slowly grew into something not quite human, something that needs to feed on souls to survive...  Alys and all the children in her village were spared by the twins, but having lost their parents and elders the children were sent to live in a neighbouring village. Afraid of facing a similar fate, the villagers in the children’s' adopted home created a strict world where good and evil are as fundamental as the nursery rhymes children sing. Fear of the soul eaters – and of the Beast they believe guides them – rule village life. But the Beast is not what they think he is. And neither is Alys.  Haunting but beautiful, The Beast is an Animal is a wholly original fairytale: shivery, dark, and deeply satisfying.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49592353849617,"sku":"GOR008970547","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1471163539.jpg?v=1751273727"},{"product_id":"cold-is-in-her-bones-book-peternelle-van-arsdale-9781481488440","title":"The Cold is in Her Bones","description":"\u003cb\u003eA dark and enchanting tale. --\u003ci\u003eBustle\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFiercely written and beautifully feminist. --Lisa Maxwell, \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eThe Last Magician\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne girl must uncover secrets of the past to save her friend from a terrible curse in this dark, angry fairy tale (\u003ci\u003eBCB, starred review\u003c\/i\u003e) filled with love, revenge, and redemption that is inspired by the myth of Medusa.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMilla knows two things to be true: Demons are real, and fear will keep her safe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMilla's whole world is her family's farm.
