The Convalescent by Jessica Anthony
3.0
I like reading bizarre books & this one certainly fits the bill.
It's at times touching, imaginative, funny, gross, & fascinating. However, by a third of the way in, I already had an inkling to the ending & I wasn't far off in my guess. I'm not sure if it was that blatantly obvious or if I've just read too many odd books, but I felt a little let-down at already knowing the direction the book was going. Still, it was a quick & mostly entertaining story.
A worthwhile read for fans of bizarro fiction.
