Jessica Cuello liked emily's review of Yours, Creature:
Yours, Creature by Jessica Cuello
"i like the blending of research & persona, i like aspects of the epistolary format but feel it gets a bit redundant which i'm sure is amplified by reading this in so few sittings, & i like the way the sounds of the poems work with the images. brutal " Read more of this review »

Carolina Those are all good books Jessica! A couple of them I want to read to. I'm really happy I found someone with a good taste in books. I'm a author that is trying to find a idea for a children's book. Recently I've been trying to recommend a good children's book to a friends daughter. I've been asking around and if you have anything you would like to recommend please do. Sincerely Carolina Cuello.
