"Beautiful, greedy and terrifying, this book makes an intimate home for itself right alongside your bones." -- Freya Marske, internationally bestselling author of A Marvellous Light
Feast While You Can has the delicious compulsion of a thriller and all the lush prose and tenderness of a love story. I devoured it and it will devour you. -- Sarvat Hasin, author of The Giant Dark
"FEAST WHILE YOU CAN is a singingly clever and gnarly tale of hunger and possession. Lesbian pulp meets literary horror--truly unlike anything else. The sexiest book you'll read this year!" -- Yael van der Wouden, author of The Safekeep
"A love story both modern and timeless,Feast While You Canis also the one-that-got-away horror fable of your dreams. What a delicious, original, dark-and-stormy-night of a novel." -- Amy Jo Burns, author of Mercury
"An erotic, feral masterpiece that straddles the imagined borders between lust and horror, crafting a new kind of folklore that taps into the very essence of desire. Impossible to put down, but you must try--because a literary feast like this should be enjoyed slowly." -- Jennifer Neal, author of Notes on Her Color
