Nothing horrible like that Larry Send a noteboard - 24/11/2011 10:24:08 AM
Nice idea, btw.

If she could acquire a copy, I imagine Rebekah might enjoy Aimee Bender's Willful Creatures, even if it might be a bit "weird" in places.

Are there horrible stories about children in it? I can't cope with those. But I do like the description of the book and of her writing style so I'll look it up at some point. If I remember. :P

I think you should read The Bone People by Keri Hulme.


I want to say I bought that book from an earlier rec by you a couple of years ago, but I'll have to check a particular "rainy day" stack to see if it's there. One of the perils of acquiring dozens of books each month.
