What Bookmarks staff are saying about the book:
"V.E. Schwab has once gain blessed us with a centuries-spanning tale full of love and heartbreak. Toxic relationships, immortality, and moral decay combine to create three unforgettable characters in this novel perfect for fans of S.T. Gibson's A DOWRY OF BLOOD and Leigh Bardugo's THE FAMILIAR. Oh, and did I mention it's gay as hell?" — Becca
"Schwab is incapable of writing anything less than a work of art. Bury Our Bones is peak sapphic vampire fiction and I almost feel like I need to now absorb every piece of vampire fiction just to keep the feeling from this book alive in my veins. Sabine, Lottie, and Alice may have been changed, turned to vampires- but this book changed me. I don't quite know into what yet, but, something definitely happened to me after reading this book." — Cat
