It's a story of motherhood, sacrifice, and hope; of queer identity and learning to accept who you are; of gilded lies and the danger of believing the narratives others create for you. Out on the Yorkshire Moors lives a secret line of people for whom books are food, and who retain all of a book's content after eating it. To them, spy novels are a peppery snack; romance novels are sweet and delicious. Eating a map can help them remember destinations, and children, when they misbehave, are forced to eat dry, musty pages from dictionaries. Devon is part of The Family, an old and reclusive clan of book eaters. Her brothers grow up feasting on stories of valor and adventure, and Devon-like all other book eater women-is raised on a carefully curated diet of fairytales and cautionary stories. But real life doesn't always come with happy endings, as Devon learns when her son is born with a rare and darker kind of hunger-not for books, but for human minds"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Books $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Clans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Control (Psychology) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Food $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sex role $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Hunger $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers and sons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Motherhood $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Great Britain $v Fiction. 651 0 $a England, Northern $v Fiction. 655 2 $a Fictional Work $0 (DNLM)D022922 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726607 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 776 08 $i Online version: $a Dean, Sunyi. $t Book eaters. $b First edition $d New York : TOR/Tom Doherty Associates, 2022 $z 9781250810199 $w (DLC) 2022008285 941 $a 74 952 $l FGPD194 $d 20240515010910.0 952 $l XWPC787 $d 20240425010219.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417020103.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409042753.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314024204.0 952 $l CJPC482 $d 20240202014201.0 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119020449.0 952 $l JNPC081 $d 20231227013546.0 952 $l AIPC937 $d 20231222010558.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207014937.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206011121.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20231205012057.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20231202012324.0 952 $l LPPC815 $d 20231101131216.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025014327.0 952 $l WHPE115 $d 20231021032254.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012011605.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024904.0 952 $l CZPD706 $d 20230913010104.0 952 $l FWPE284 $d 20230822010944.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20230817010351.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230808010237.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20230725011342.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015106.0 952 $l P1AX906 $d 20230620011955.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20230602011131.0 952 $l VOPB384 $d 20230421010043.0 952 $l STPC124 $d 20230418020118.0 952 $l FJPC224 $d 20230404012317.0 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331014521.0 952 $l EMPB715 $d 20230322150830.0 952 $l TZPC572 $d 20230316011036.0 952 $l WKPE185 $d 20230310014556.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20230302012846.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20230301010555.0 952 $l HNPC845 $d 20230222010519.0 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210024836.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201023142.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20230131011031.0 952 $l FMPC224 $d 20230103012440.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20221224010031.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20221221010127.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20221203072000.0 952 $l SEPC074 $d 20221202012436.0 952 $l PZPA094 $d 20221129010455.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20221125010359.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20221125010218.0 952 $l BNPD611 $d 20221122010856.0 952 $l TBPD706 $d 20221103011324.0 952 $l CWPB586 $d 20221101010303.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20221028011518.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20221013010347.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20221012010700.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20221008010443.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20221005014044.0 952 $l GPPC641 $d 20221005013659.0 952 $l ZBPE245 $d 20220928010231.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20220914010446.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220909011449.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20220907010542.0 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20220906010530.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20220903011152.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220903010421.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20220902011559.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20220902011400.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220902010824.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20220902010102.0 952 $l REPC017 $d 20220831010252.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220827010052.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220824011138.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20220809012519.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804025200.0 952 $l ZVPB675 $d 20220802124823.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20220802014138.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9A95A9AE122B11EDB028045E3CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
