A Dowry of Snails and Mud by Brittany Tucker – Review by Alison Risher

A Dowry of Snails and Mud by Brittany Tucker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I can’t stand snails, so, of course the title captured my imagination. An arranged marriage, and a vengeful, petty bride. The heroine (for that is what the bride grows into) reminds me of my own pettiness. Themes explored include twinship and kinship, along with kindness and solidarity. The author has quite skillfully trapped me within the web of her creation.
