The Spear Cuts Through Water:

The Spear Cuts Through Water:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 5 out of 5. Content/Trigger Warning: Serious gore at times A few mentions of rape and non-consensual body modification Cannibalism  Jimenez does not pull any punches in this book.

“The big Ifrit shook his head. ‘O Great Lord, you must understand, I did not seek solace without reason. All of we Ifrit, upon coming to this world, sought out places where we could be alone. Together, we found the blood fire coming over us, urging us to burn, to set all about us aflame. But alone, we could live with our thoughts. Dwell on the purpose of our existence.’ He looked up, daring to meet the baleful gaze of the hovering giant. ‘It is called philosophy.' The Ifrit King frowned. 'Phil-o-so-phy?’ The big Ifrit nodded briskly. “A means to interrogate the nature of existence and our place within it. The more I thought, the more I began to understand myself. To know that I was created for more than just drowning my enemies in flames… That is how I discovered, I am a pacifist.’”

— A Master of Djinn, P. Djeli Clark

While I am incredibly obsessed with both Fatma and Siti I have to say that I think I love Hadia the most. The woman was just so excited to be Fatma’s partner. She also keeps backup hijaabs in her bag and is ready to quote ayah at a moments notice. You’re dealing with a racist? Hadia’s got the ayah for that. You’re sad and grieving? Hadia’s got the ayah for that. You don’t know what to do after graduating college? Hadia’s got the ayah for that. I JUST LOVE HER SO MUCH.

“For just a moment, she could pretend that her own nails were claws, that the lingering taste of blood came from her own mouth. That she was strong and unbreakable and invincible, not weak and fragile and human.” -Tori Bovalino (via Not Good for Maidens Review + Fav Quotes)

This novel means so much to me as a disabled/chronically ill woman with POTS. I have never seen my experience represented like this in any other book except for maybe Get a Life, Chloe Brown. I will forever be thankful for Lillie Lainoff and her bravery in sharing her own experiences so openly.
