Little Nothing is a terrific, atmospheric novella about two young women finding unique ways to resist and protect their communities.

Set in Florida at the start of the Civil War, Bess and Jonnie are a lesbian couple who use knotwork magic and the power of the local waterhorses, known as “limerunners,” to push back against a Confederacy trying to take over their home.

Holloway has a unique voice, and this is a read you won’t forget in a hurry.
