Willful Creatures by Aimee Bender

5.0

This is my second work of Aimee Bender, I adored The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake. I figured since I enjoyed that much I would give one a try and I ate it up. Finished it in one sitting!

Willful Creatures is one of the books that you read that will stick with you, like a cough in your lungs that you will always have. Ranging from the bizarre, to tragically heartbreaking. I haven't found many others that I feel that they wrote a book just for me, this one is it. Bender spoke to my dreams and my demons. She has the talent to break you in half within 5 pages and leaving you feeling shallow, only to fill your soul again in the next story. I cannot praise Aimee Bender's work enough, in my book is literary royalty!
