Half wondering if the contents change with the reader. Some of this was too specific!

A gripping but disturbing read. I’d heard about the cult-following behind this book so thought I’d give it a go, but it’s hard to know whether I did or didn’t enjoy it. It was difficult (intentionally, one could argue), to grasp the different strands of the plot at times. The characters were deliberately I likeable but I found that made it difficult to get into the book, alongside the ambiguity in the plot.

Hilarious and disturbing. I’ll definitely be re reading this in the future to catch things I missed the first time.

I think I liked it. Just like I think I understood what went on in this book. You know what, this was just a big fever dream so maybe I didn’t get anything. At all.🐇

I don’t know how to capture the qualities of this book in a review. You had to be there. Holy. Wow. I don’t study literature anymore but every fiber of my body is twitching to write a ten-page analysis. This book is a great read for women in academia.
