A review by khopeisz
My Death by Lisa Tuttle
4.5
Read on Libby…need to get my own copy so as to reread and annotate…
So i cannot bring myself to give a serious and thorough review of this short yet everlasting reading experience. The style of writing is right up my alley, the mood, the mystery…the themes. This is one of those stories that will hit you with a chill or a shiver upon the climax…and when you finish it, if you’re like me you’ll go, “what the f/ck did I just read?” but in a wondrous and mystified way. Like, how did Tuttle, in so short a story, do what she did to me? I need to reread this.
This is not a book I can write about coherently right now… I want to talk at someone about this for an hour. But it is worth noting, you would do better to engage with this book thematically and philosophically. Expecting a plotty payoff may disappoint you.
