A Different Bed Everytime by Jac Jemc

PRAISE FOR A DIFFERENT BED EVERY TIME

"To Jemc the world is a place where each person, every human cypher, must devour another. What then can we do, if we are devoured, if we are overcome with our own devouring? Her escape plan is inspired and ancient -- to become protean, to dwell in costume after costume, parcelling away the truth that can be found in each. But where is it hid? Ask her, though she may not say." — Jesse Ball, author of Silence Once Begun

"Jac Jemc is an artisan. A Different Bed Every Time stays with you long after you've finished reading. Every story is painstakingly crafted with words and imagery that are honed and placed just so, creating a mosaic you feel grateful, exhilarated, thrilled to experience." —Lindsay Hunter, author of Don't Kiss Me, and Ugly Girls
