? UNDER THE LAMPLIGHT-

Motherhood under a new light: Rachel Yoder’s debut novel, NightB*tch, dives into all things womanhood and motherhood but in a more unhinged manner than most. The novel follows a stay-at-home mother, who abandoned her career in the arts to take care of his train-obsessed little one, her life slowly transforms from an art-filled, unpredictable concussion to a deadly routine of park visits, snack times, and bedtime stories until her transformation starts. Her teeth become sharper, her skin becomes harrier, her sense of smell stronger than ever, her urge to kill the housecat takes over and the story unfolds. “Yoder’s peculiar wit infuses new life into the cold, furry flesh of the monstrous femme,” the Guardian wrote.
