Notes
#15: The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender
Today is The Day Of Many Deadlines and I, being the responsible woman that I am, have decided to talk about this book instead of doing work. I read this book with little preface, having picked it up on the sole basis that it was by Aimee Bender and would obviously be great. And it was! I love the unique and untraditional-type narrative that Bender writes so incredibly. All of her characters are so rich and full and I loved their story progression down to the last line.
Based on other reviews I’ve read, it’s a pretty mixed bag of likes, loves, hates and annoyances. A lot of people seem to love the first half of the book and hate the second half, but I loved it all. Everything ended just as it should.
