Since the dawn of time, life has been comfortable and predictable. The gods have wrested pockets of Creation from Chaos, formed civilizations, and built entire realities. Now, the nature of Creation is changing and the Divine are losing their divinity.
Rosemary, daughter of the God of Creation, can no longer deny this when a strange delegation from Dawnland braves the paths through Chaos and survives. Come to negotiate trade and protection agreements with the Divine of Meadowsweet, it is the butterfly woman who so captivates Rosemary. The weight of her sorrow, the heaviness of her secrets.
For the soul is a battleground. Clouds are massing along the horizon, and Rosemary... She must survive the storm.

let’s get ready for #DisabilityDecember! i hope you’ll participate and pick up some books with disability representation next month (and beyond).
thank you so much to the Disability December team for including me!
reading about disabled main characters has meant a lot to me, and I tried to include a couple books that I haven’t recommended as frequently on this list. don’t worry though, i’m sure I’ll make some sort of post begging everyone to read Sick Kids in Love before the month is up. 😉
