Ugh, I LOVED this. A beautifully lyrical, very moving, intimate and often times haunting story about three. American women's relationships to sex, self realisation, desire, and transgression.

Lina is unloved by her husband but has taken up sex with her high school sweetheart, Maggie takes her teacher to trial for an inappropriate relationship, and former rich girl Sloane loves cucking her husband as he watches...

Completely absorbing, bewitching, moving accounts of womanhood, I can already feel this one will stay with me.

2.0

I think there are important points to be made about the ways that society objectifies women and shames them for their desires. But this book felt nihilistic in its retelling. The message I’m walking away with is “men will use you like objects and other women are your enemy”.

2.5

this is a non fiction but kinda written as fiction, especially maggies story. i feel like this book gives a realistic picture of what women go through in misogynistic society, where people doesn't support other women whom often are victimized by men and other women. my blood boils reading maggie experience and how she doesnt have a happy ending, which is realistic and exactly why it pisses me off so much. i love the prologue, it rlly gives a nice start and depicts what women experience but tbh disappointed in the way she told maggie s story and the epilogue. feels like she couldve done more and analyze more about feminism, misogyny, and desires.
