Choose Me -- Evelyn Lau



In the middle of reading Choose Me by Evelyn Lau and I thought it was a good time to take a brief respite in the middle and write down how I feel.

First, I gotta say, "I love Evelyn Lau." Must be the whole angsty disgust thing that and broken down depressive -- our bodies are not ourselves -- theme that thread thru everything she writes. I like it. I like it a lot.

Then there is her use of language. It's knitted together very well. Something I always tried to imitate is the way she joins sentences in a paragraph together by the unity of images.

Oh, one more thing I really like. Twisty endings.
