From Little Stack
Deliciously gothic, haunting and ferocious, Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil is a dark and twisted vampire tale that has sapphic love and desire woven throughout.
This is a story about hunger, desire, women, and vampires. It is a story about three women, centuries apart, who all share the same secret desire: to be more than a pawn in men’s games. At first they are unconnected, but slowly their stories are woven together, revealing how their destinies tragically interlaced.
It is a story that feels ancient and modern at the same time, exploring themes that are as relevant today as they were centuries ago. And if you’re not usually into vampire stories don’t dismiss this book. They aren’t my usual thing either, but this masterpiece was one of my favourite books of 2025.
From V. E. Schwab, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue: a new genre-defying novel about immortality and hunger.
This is a story about hunger.
1532. Santo Domingo de la Calzada. A young girl grows up wild and wily—her beauty is only outmatched by her dreams of escape. But María knows she can only ever be a prize, or a pawn, in the games played by men. When an alluring stranger offers an alternate path, María makes a desperate choice. She vows to have no regrets.
This is a story about love.
1827. London. A young woman lives an idyllic but cloistered life on her family's estate, until a moment of forbidden intimacy sees her shipped off to London. Charlotte's tender heart and seemingly impossible wishes are swept away by an invitation from a beautiful widow—but the price of freedom is higher than she could have imagined.
This is a story about rage.
2019. Boston. College was supposed to be her chance to be someone new. That's why Alice moved halfway across the world, leaving her old life behind.
