April 2020 Indie Next List

“Within the first chapter of Godshot, you can hear Chelsea Bieker’s fist swinging toward you, but it still won’t prepare you for the punch to the gut this book delivers. Lacey springs off the page in her first moments and takes you along with her on her dust-torn, glitter-stained, bloodied journey. Sometimes I get tired of being reminded how dangerous it is to be a woman (because, dammit, I KNOW!), but Bieker’s prose is so beautifully consuming I found myself whipping through words that twisted my insides. What a resounding book.”
