Spill Simmer Falter Wither by Sara Baume

5.0

I picked it up... got distracted by the season(s) and other books that had dates on the calendar. Even with the gaps in time, I never forgot about it or lost the thread.

Is it perfect? No. However, the “odd” point of view/conversation is part of what eventually makes it so special. The prose... lyrical/poetic.

BIG WARNING!!! if you need this to be a sweet man/dog story, back away and move along. If you are ok with a “smooshed together” Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time & Marley & Me... it will be worth the investment... awesome debut... can’t wait for more.
