Clueless meets Mean Girls meets a really bad trip, I could not put this down. Compulsive, claustrophobic, compelling and downright bizarre. I loved it.

Crazy-scary-sad is the perfect way to describe this book. I'm a fan of the prose - the proems. Hate bouquet. Fuck you flower. Mouth sounds.
This book defied all my initial expectations but felt quite disjointed. I wish it flowed more smoothly. I nearly lost interest halfway through when Samantha's (the MC) pity party kind of felt too much. Still, I recommend it just because Mona Awad's writing style is fun to read!

This book was confusing and weird--bad weird. Too weird for me. Was it supposed to be horror? Seemed pretty horrific to me. A lady on tiktok recommended it, I will not be taking her recommendations again!
