CHILDREN OF BLOOD AND BONE is one of my favorite books of 2018, and I expect to still feel that way at the end of the year. Out today, this book has been highly-coveted since the very beginning. There was a massive pre-empt deal from Macmillan for this debut, which netted author Tomi Adeyemi a seven-figure deal that included movie rights--and she's only twenty-three years old. The buzz around this novel has set the book world on fire, and it's all well-deserved. I've been waiting to get my hands on this book for a long time, first when I saw the deal announcement and heard how awesome it sounded, and then again when I saw its beautiful cover. Now I've read it and am already eager to read it again, as well as get my hands on the beautiful finished copy. (A true collector, I plan to own the Barnes and Noble Exclusive Edition.)
