Literature A - Z [ 23 / 26 ] ⟶ WforWilder Girls by Rory Power

Usually, it was an accident. A lie I never set out to tell. A trick I never meant to play. I’d open my mouth, and something strange would come out, new and not mine. Like there was someone else inside.

Jennifer C. from Fair Grove Branch Library recommends “Wilder Girls and Burn Our Bodies Down” by Rory Power.

Rory Powers writes a kind of horror that you cannot get out of your mind once you have finished reading.  The elements of body horror she imagines as a result of environmental complications are chilling.  These are the kind of books that will make you want to treat the earth with respect just to avoid the wrath of Mother Nature.
