'New Animal' is a journey through and exploration of grief in a young woman. An interesting debut novel from Ella Baxter, 'New Animal' packs some punches. Baxter explores how trauma from grief manifests itself.

This book will have you laughing and reflecting on your own inner thoughts at the same time.

I personally felt like the last chapter was incredible and the prose was so beautifully thought out and written.

A promising debut - I am keen to see what Ella Baxter publishes next.

New Animal by Ella Baxter has a promising premise about a young woman attempting to distract herself from grief but I felt like it was underdeveloped.

Wow. Not even sure where to begin with this one.
A perfect, honest and hard hitting account of grief, losing a mother and how its (not) handled.
This weirdly has the perfect mix of grief and sex which stunned me but it absolutely worked.
Some shocking scenes- not for the faint hearted.
Raw, unique, clever.
And its a debut. OHMYGOODNESS.
