This is a gory, horror masterpiece! This is a new favorite book for me, and possibly my favorite horror book of all. It’s disgusting and beautiful at the same time. Explores the horrors of the patriarchy and how women, especially older women, are treated. And it’s written by a man. Like, what? Heavy trigger warnings, so check those before reading.

i think i have to take some stars off for violating my “one graphic animal death per book” and

a few pages of
exposition on hypothetical ritual group-raping a middle aged woman with a cactus

and yet i did somehow very much enjoy the reading experience…
