what an absolutely devastating book with an absolutely devastating ending. almost made me cry on the plane. squeezes in a bunch of horror and just enough lesbianism. 5 stars.

A gripping tale although sometimes the author tries to establish analogies that aren't quite there/written in a wonky manner and certain relationships (and their aspects) could have been left out.
