Keeping House (Appalachian Elementals) - Softcover

Praise for Cleaning House - Appalachian Elementals Book One

"A stand-out book. An imaginative tale of identity steeped in Appalachian folklore." - BookLife Prize

"While this story is full of beautiful, wonderful queerness in all its glory, it isn't limited to that. It's also about taking care of each other and the earth; it's about coming home; it's about family of origin and chosen family, and it's about standing up against the forces of destruction all around us. This is a book for anyone who is looking for love and beauty amidst all the ugliness and cruelty our modern world so often displays". - Author A. M. Leibowitz

"Honestly, it was nothing like I expected but I was completely drawn into the world the author created and felt as if she (the author) had the secrets of the world trapped within the pages. The use of pronouns was masterful, the glorious understanding that sexuality and life are to be accepted the way people are- everything about this story screamed of love and home and acceptance and magic. This is a book that will stay with you long after you've finished reading" - Author H. M. Gooden

"I'd recommend Cleaning House to readers who enjoy an interesting story of elemental and other magic that has complex characters and explores sexuality, gender, and a person's sense of self." - Author Anne Barwell
