This is nothing like My Year Of Rest an Relaxation.
Lapvona is funny, dark and twisted. I could rarely predict what would happen next, which made me want to keep reading.
All in all, a fun read.

in Lapvona there were so many elements of horror and disgust, so i would advise people not to start this book before checking out the trigger warnings because it is a lot to get through. i don't think i was that shocked to read the more gore-y parts of the story rather than the behavior of the many different characters. there was not a single one that stood out with any positive characteristic to me. however, that didn't make the book bad? usually it would throw me off since i very much so rely on the characters because they are usually the builders of the story, but in this one, i liked it a lot as it was. no complaints there.
i loved how the story was a mix of body horror but also delusion between its characters. it gave off a sense of dark comedy in a way. i'll also say that regarding the story i am willing to excuse (view spoiler) but only in this one instance.
all in all this book was a maze in which every corner made you feel either disturbed, shocked or a bit frightened. it was great!
