Winner: 2018 Alex Award
Winner: 2018 ALA RUSA Fantasy Award

Seanan McGuire returns to her popular Wayward Children series with Down Among the Sticks and Bones--a truly standalone story suitable for adult and young adult readers of urban fantasy, and the follow-up to the Alex, Hugo, Nebula, and Locus Award-winning, World Fantasy Award finalist, Tiptree Honor List book Every Heart a Doorway

Twin sisters Jack and Jill were seventeen when they found their way home and were packed off to Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children.

This is the story of what happened first...

Jacqueline was her mother's perfect daughter--polite and quiet, always dressed as a princess. If her mother was sometimes a little strict, it's because crafting the perfect daughter takes discipline.

Jillian was her father's perfect daughter--adventurous, thrill-seeking, and a bit of a tom-boy. He really would have preferred a son, but you work with what you've got.

They were five when they learned that grown-ups can't be trusted.

They were twelve when they walked down the impossible staircase and discovered that the pretense of love can never be enough to prepare you a life filled with magic in a land filled with mad scientists and death and choices.

My Dog's Favorite Nylabone
Flavor Name: Bacon & Beef, Size: X-Small
I've been testing out Nylabones the last couple months for my chihuahua puppy. He's a heavy chewer and too easily tears apart many of them, then others are too hard and I take them away because I fear for his teeth. This set is his favorite so far. He doesn't care about the peanut butter ones, loves the beef one, and is absolutely obsessed with the bacon one. He walks around with it in his mouth whenever he goes anywhere. Unfortunately, my senior chihuahua also loves the bacon one and there is now an ongoing feud over it, so guess I'm buying another pack. I like that these are just a little chewy without being too soft, but I still recommend keeping an eye on them as even my puppy has managed to start to get little pieces off. But it's more as frayed strings than chunk like I've had happen with some of the softer ones.

Good for satisfying destruction urges
Flavor Name: Bacon & Beef, Size: X-Small
I have a 30 pound dog who doesn’t want a super hard chew toy, but something that he can destroy into pieces. It really helps with his destruction urges. Even though my dog is 18 months old, this puppy chewer is perfect for him. Once he chews it up into little pieces, I am able to pick them up, and by the time he is done, he is relaxed and or asleep. Highly recommend for puppies, of course, but if you have a dog who needs to destroy, this is the perfect thing to do that with! It is good value for the money and better than other household items that he could be chewing on.

These things have outstanded this little guy and he is still enjoying them! Keeps him occupied and satisfies his chewing for hours! And he leaves my shoes alone haha

Best for all chewers!
Color: Purple, Color: Purple
I purchased in February and waited until ive had them long enough to make a justified review. I have a very VERY aggressive chewer. He destroys every toy he gets within minutes or a hour. We didnt expect much out of these but why not. Let me tell you... they only have small teeth dents. No cracks, no breaks, no chunks missing, none in the trash, no bleeding gums... nothing. My chewer loves them. First day he just stared at them like they were alien objects but after we played fetch a few times it was on!! Now all three dogs chewer on them. I would say im purchasing again but I dont know when that will be lol I highly recommend to anyone!! Photo is taken today 6/4/26
