Ahhh okay. So much to say about this book. I love the way the narrator shares her thoughts on her body and intimacy. I love the depth of feeling she describes and I can relate to her feelings of unknowing and just feeling lost. This book is such a delicious deep dive into sexuality and body image without being too cheugy or taking itself too seriously. It’s funny without being a comedy and real without being tragic.

It feels like fetishization. The MC has an eating disorder and “falls in love” with a fat woman, who is the exact person the mc does not want to be herself. Odd book.

Did not enjoy descriptions of eating disorders or that we met a fat person who is everything we didn’t want to be and that’s where the romance is?  Also why did we wanna fuck our mom 😭
