The Art of Taxidermy by Sharon Kernot

3.0

The Art of Taxidermy is a verse novel about love and death, and the beauty that comes with it. Lottie takes us through her struggle of losing her mother and finding an outlet through taxidermy.

When I requested this book I guess I missed the part where it said verse novel but I am glad that I requested it because it turned out to be a wonderful surprise!

The author’s lyrical writing sweeps you into the fascination that Lottie has when it comes to taxidermy. Each piece has its own unique topic that come together with the rest. Taxidermy is an unusual topic and this verse novel does a great job of making it even more interesting and combining it with beautiful writing.

Overall, it was a good book to get me out of my comfort zone. If you are into verse novels with a wonderfully intriguing theme then this book is for you!
