Praise for Casually Homicidal
“With a daring premise and striking, staccato prose, Casually Homicidal takes you away on an adventure like no other. Bennett’s sophomore novel puts its finger on the pulse of what it means to love, to hate, to lose, to bleed, to fight, to suffer, to live. With fearsome heights and dramatic lows, Casually Homicidal is a bloody story that’s sure to leave you breathless.”
